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.

messages now begin with "valgrind: ", and they're more often printed before
the preamble. This required introducing a new message kind, Vg_FailMsg, and
functions VG_(fmsg) and VG_(fmsg_bad_option), and removing
VG_(err_bad_option).
Where we used to have horrible output like this:
[ocean:~/grind/ws2] vg5 --tool=massif --threshold=101 date
==31877== Massif, a heap profiler
==31877== Copyright (C) 2003-2010, and GNU GPL'd, by Nicholas Nethercote
==31877== Using Valgrind-3.6.0.SVN and LibVEX; rerun with -h for copyright info
==31877== Command: date
==31877==
==31877== --threshold must be between 0.0 and 100.0
valgrind: Bad option '--threshold'; aborting.
valgrind: Use --help for more information.
We now have nice output like this:
[ocean:~/grind/ws2] vg2 --tool=massif --threshold=101 date
valgrind: Bad option: --threshold=101
valgrind: --threshold must be between 0.0 and 100.0
valgrind: Use --help for more information or consult the user manual.

There were some easy-to-resolve conflicts.
Then I had to fix up coregrind/link_tool_exe*.in -- those files had been
added independently on both the trunk and the branch, AFAICT. I just
overwrote the trunk versions with the branch versions.

This commit tidies up and rationalises what could be called the
"messaging" system -- that part of V to do with presenting output to
the user. In particular it brings significant improvements to XML
output.
Changes are:
* XML and normal text output now have separate file descriptors,
which solves longstanding problems for XML consumers caused by
the XML output getting polluted by unexpected non-XML output.
* This also means that we no longer have to hardwire all manner
of output settings (verbosity, etc) when XML is requested.
* The XML output format has been revised, cleaned up, and made
more suitable for use by error detecting tools in general
(various Memcheck-specific features have been removed). XML
output is enabled for Ptrcheck and Helgrind, and Memcheck is
updated to the new format.
* One side effect is that the behaviour of VG_(message) has been
made to be consistent with printf: it no longer automatically
adds a newline at the end of the output. This means multiple
calls to it can be used to build up a single line message; or a
single call can write a multi-line message. The ==pid==
preamble is automatically inserted at each newline.
* VG_(message)(Vg_UserMsg, ..args..) now has the abbreviated form
VG_(UMSG)(..args..); ditto VG_(DMSG) for Vg_DebugMsg and
VG_(EMSG) for Vg_DebugExtraMsg. A couple of other useful
printf derivatives have been added to pub_tool_libcprint.h,
most particularly VG_(vcbprintf).
* There's a small change in the core-tool interface to do with
error handling: VG_(needs_tool_errors) has a new method
void (*before_pp_Error)(Error* err) which, if non-NULL, is
called just before void (*pp_Error)(Error* err). This is to
give tools the chance to look at errors before any part of them
is printed, so they can print any XML preamble they like.
* coregrind/m_errormgr.c has been overhauled and cleaned up, and
is a bit simpler and more commented. In particular pp_Error
and VG_(maybe_record_error) are significantly changed.
The diff is huge, but mostly very boring. Most of the changes
are of the form
- VG_(message)(Vg_UserMsg, "this is a message %d", n);
+ VG_(message)(Vg_UserMsg, "this is a message %d\n", n);
Unfortunately as a result of this, it touches a large number
of source files.

following improvements:
- Arch/OS/platform-specific files are now included/excluded via the
preprocessor, rather than via the build system. This is more consistent
(we use the pre-processor for small arch/OS/platform-specific chunks
within files) and makes the build system much simpler, as the sources for
all programs are the same on all platforms.
- Vast amounts of cut+paste Makefile.am code has been factored out. If a
new platform is implemented, you need to add 11 extra Makefile.am lines.
Previously it was over 100 lines.
- Vex has been autotoolised. Dependency checking now works in Vex (no more
incomplete builds). Parallel builds now also work. --with-vex no longer
works; it's little use and a pain to support. VEX/Makefile is still in
the Vex repository and gets overwritten at configure-time; it should
probably be renamed Makefile-gcc to avoid possible problems, such as
accidentally committing a generated Makefile. There's a bunch of hacky
copying to deal with the fact that autotools don't handle same-named files
in different directories. Julian plans to rename the files to avoid this
problem.
- Various small Makefile.am things have been made more standard automake
style, eg. the use of pkginclude/pkglib prefixes instead of rolling our
own.
- The existing five top-level Makefile.am include files have been
consolidated into three.
- Most Makefile.am files now are structured more clearly, with comment
headers separating sections, declarations relating to the same things next
to each other, better spacing and layout, etc.
- Removed the unused exp-ptrcheck/tests/x86 directory.
- Renamed some XML files.
- Factored out some duplicated dSYM handling code.
- Split auxprogs/ into auxprogs/ and mpi/, which allowed the resulting
Makefile.am files to be much more standard.
- Cleaned up m_coredump by merging a bunch of files that had been
overzealously separated.
The net result is 630 fewer lines of Makefile.am code, or 897 if you exclude
the added Makefile.vex.am, or 997 once the hacky file copying for Vex is
removed. And the build system is much simpler.

I tried using 'svn merge' to do the merge but it did a terrible job and
there were bazillions of conflicts. So instead I just took the diff between
the branch and trunk at r10155, applied the diff to the trunk, 'svn add'ed
the added files (no files needed to be 'svn remove'd) and committed.

DARWIN branch. A big ugly DARWIN/trunk sync commit, mostly to do with
changing the representation of SysRes and vki_sigset_t. Functionality of
the trunk shouldn't be changed by it.

the DARWIN branch easier later.
- Remove the disabled vgtest_ume test, it's very unlikely it'll ever work
again.
- Move VG_(find_auxv) to initimg-linux.c, the only place it's used, and make
it static.
