Necessary changes to Valgrind to support MIPS64LE on Linux.
Minor cleanup/style changes embedded in the patch as well.
The change corresponds to r2687 in VEX.
Patch written by Dejan Jevtic and Petar Jovanovic.

In a big applications, some recursive algorithms have created
hundreds of thousands of stacktraces, taking a lot of memory.
Option --merge-recursive-frames=<number> tells Valgrind to
detect and merge (collapse) recursive calls when recording stack traces.
The value is changeable using the monitor command
'v.set merge-recursive-frames'.
Also, this provides a new client request: VALGRIND_MONITOR_COMMAND
allowing to execute a gdbsrv monitor command from the client
program.

All calls to VG_(unknown_SP_update) were recording an execontext
of one IP, useful only for track origin.
This patch implements splits VG_(unknown_SP_update)
in two different functions VG_(unknown_SP_update_w_ECU)
(doing origin tracking) and VG_(unknown_SP_update) (not doing origin tracking).

--profile-flags=00000000 now prints summary statistics, one line per
profiled block, but with no translation details. Previously it had
no effect.
--profile-interval=<number> is a new flag that causes the profile data
to be dumped and zeroed every <number> event checks. This makes it
possible to get profile data without waiting for runs to end, and to
get profile data which depends on the current workload etc. If
--profile-interval=0 or is unset, the profile is printed only once, at
the end of the run, as before.
--profile-flags=XXXXXXXX (for at least one nonzero X) prints the
summary lines both at the start and end of the profile, so you don't
have to scroll back up to the top to see the summary.

Add support to properly handle TEQ, ADD and SUB instructions that generate
exceptions on MIPS platforms. A SignalException test for MIPS32 has also been
added, so we can cover more cases.

The tester is located in memcheck/tests/vbit-test.
It needs the following support on the valgrind / VEX side:
(1) a new client request VG_USERREQ__VEX_INIT_FOR_IRI
(2) a new "special instruction" on all architectures inserted via
VALGRIND_VEX_INJECT_IR
(3) VEX changes to detect the special insn and insert IR (ir_inject.c)
The README file in vbit-test has some more information.
See also VEX r2490. Fixes bugzilla #300102.

to actually honour requests for 32 alignment, and fall back to the
previous setting (16 alignment).

* re-ordered the values to match the declaration order in

way that the fast-path through VG_(disp_cp_xindir) only has to
increment a 32 bit counter, saving memory bandwidth on 32 bit
platforms compared to a 64-bit inc. The overall numbers of XIndirs
can still be 64 bit though.

This slightly improves some perf tests (e.g. heap).
Some not explained "real time" slow down of bz2 between trunk/svn tchain
and this patch analyzed with callgrind/cachegrind.
realtime slowdown attributed to Pentium 4 self modifying code unfriendly cache.
(callgrind/cachegrind cache simulation do not understand self modifying
code).

This is the followup to rev 12488.
With this revision, translation chaining is not done
if the translation with 'from address' is not existing
anymore (discarded or erased).
The assumption documented in 12488 comment has been checked by:
* first reproduce a crash in Firefox when always setting
caused discard to False
* then upgrade to rev 12488
* with this upgrade, no crash anymore.
=> this verifies that the caused discard logic is properly
replaced by revision 12488.
So, the caused discard logic can be removed.

If the pre_thread_ll_create tracking function would be invoked without the
big lock being held, that would trigger a race condition in the tools that
implement this tracking function.

* manual-core.xml : fix a typo
* include/pub_tool_inner.h : new file, defining macros for inner annotation
include/Makefile.am : reference this new file.
* syswrap-linux.c : when ENABLE_INNER, register the stacks for the outer.
(otherwise, nothing works properly).
* m_redir.c : avoid inner interpreting the outer vgpreload instructions.
* sema.c : annotate the semaphore with RWLOCK annotations for helgrind
* ticket-lock-linux.c : similar.

VALGRIND_{DISABLE,ENABLE}_ERROR_REPORTING, which allow a thread to
temporarily disable reporting of errors it makes. This is useful for
making Memcheck behave sanely in the presence of some MPI
implementations. Also mark up libmpiwrap.c accordingly.

* syswrap-{generic|darwin|aix5}.c : in PRE(sys_execve) : terminate gdbserver
* pub_core_gdbserver.h and m_gdbserver.c : add VG_(gdbserver_prerun_action),

fork or a traced exec).

__builtin_setjmp and __builtin_longjmp so that they can be selectively
replaced, on a platform by platform basis. Does not change any
functionality. Related to #259977.

Useful if the program in question catches signals, in which case the usual
"Process terminating..." stack trace isn't shown. Requested by Jesse
Ruderman.
