- New core uinstrs, GETSEG, PUTSEG (save and restore segment regs)
- New core uinstr USESEG, which takes a segment selector and a
virtual address, and returns a linear address -- and also does
a limit check. This calls through to VG_(use_ldt) in vg_ldt.c.
- Insn parser (disAMode) made aware of segment override prefixes
- Obvious fixes to insn emitter and translators
None of the skins understand these new uinstrs, so only --skin=none
works with them at the mo. This and some other rough edges still
need to be fixed.

use_under_scores instead, to be consistent.
Also added some missing 'extern's on function declarations in vg_skin.h.
Also added a quick note in vg_regtest.in on the simplest way to run regression
tests.

- changed lots of Makefile.am files
- changed configure.in
- changed lots of #include lines for changed file names
- changed lots of file headers n footers for changed file names
- changed vg_regtest to handle new directory structure -- recursively
traverses subdirectories for .vgtest test files
- changed lots of paths in memcheck/ regression test expected outputs

add a simple compromise, in which the client can notify valgrind
that certain code address ranges are invalid and should be retranslated.
This is done using the VALGRIND_DISCARD_TRANSLATIONS macro in valgrind.h.
At the same time take the opportunity to close the potentially fatal
loophole that translations for executable segments were not being
discarded when those segments were munmapped. They are now.
Documentation updated.

for pthread_* support. Major changes:
* Valgrind now contains a (skeletal!) user-space pthreads
implementation. The exciting bits are in new file vg_scheduler.c.
This contains thread management and scheduling, including nasty crud
to do with making some syscalls (read,write,nanosleep) nonblocking.
Also implementation of pthread_ functions: create join
mutex_{create,destroy,lock,unlock} and cancel.
* As a side effect of the above, major improvements to signal handling
and to the client-request machinery. This is now used to intercept
malloc/free etc too; the hacky way this is done before is gone.
Another side effect is that vg_dispatch.S is greatly simplified.
Also, the horrible hacks to do with delivering signals to threads
blocked in syscalls are gone, since the new mechanisms cover this case
easily.
