Fall back to a compromise position, which makes my mutex implementation
initialiser- and structure-compatible with LinuxThreads, and ditto the
upcoming condition var implementation. In particular this means that
((ThreadId)0) is an invalid thread ID, so vg_threads[0] is never used,
and vg_threads[1] specially denotes the "main" thread.
Remove the scheme of having a linked list of threads waiting on
each mutex. It is too difficult to get the right semantics for
when a signal is delivered to a thread blocked in pthread_mutex_lock().
Instead, use the old scheme of each thread stating with its .waited_on_mx
field, which mutex it is waiting for. This makes pthread_mutex_unlock()
less efficient, but at least it all works.

VG_(unimplemented). In future this will not be enabled by default due
to the danger of recursion of assertion failures.

of pthread event tracing. And allow this info to be passed across to
the client, where vg_libpthread.c uses it to also control verbosity.

on the client-request subsystem, and disabling it is no longer a
sensible thing to do.
Also: in the manual, mention flags --trace-sched= and --trace-pthread=.

Turns out these insns are also available as Grp8 extensions, with
literal bit-offset values. Nuisance. I've #if 0'd out the old code
which implements them since am too lazy to fix them properly, and I
can't find any cases of their use anyway. I'll wait until someone
yelps.

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.

--check-addrVs=no. The default behaviour, =yes, is the original
behaviour. So far this is undocumented.
