the changes to do with reading and using ELF and DWARF3 info.
This breaks all targets except amd64-linux and x86-linux.

snapshots on ppc32-linux in the presence of functions subject to
leaf-function optimisations.
At the same time, simplify the stack unwinding logic by basically
implementing it separately for each target. Having a single piece of
logic for amd64 and x86 was tenable, but merging ppc32 into it is too
confusing. So now there is an x86/amd64 unwinder and a ppc32
unwinder.
This requires plumbing a link-register value into
VG_(get_StackTrace2), and that in turn requires passing it around
several other stack-trace-related functions. Hence 7 changed files.

unsuccessful attempt to remove m_libcassert from the huge cycle which
most of the modules currently live in.
VG_(get_StackTrace2) can now be privatised, but I haven't done so yet.

for small examples on x86. Still messy, slow, amd64 specifics not
done, and non-null cie.augmentations are not handled.

two halves: stacktrace.c, which deals with getting, traversing and printing
stack traces; and execontext.c, which deals with storing stack traces
permanently in a way that avoids duplicates, and comparing them.
One nice outcome: previously we were often creating ExeContexts, which live
forever, even when they were only needed temporarily. Ie. this was a memory
leak, which has been removed.
As part of this, new headers have been created, carved off core.h and
tool.h. Lots of function names have changed, too.
In Massif, I also changed a lot of "eip" names to "ip" to make them less
x86-specific.
