39c447e4a9 Merge mc_replace_strmem.c, hg_intercepts.c and drd_strmem_intercepts.c
Move memcheck/mc_replace_strmem.c to shared/vg_replace_strmem.c and
add several intercepts for SSE-variants. Include that source file from
drd/drd_strmem_intercepts.c, helgrind/hg_intercepts.c and
memcheck/mc_replace_strmem.c.

Merge memcheck/tests/filter_memcpy into tests/filter_stderr_basic.
    
Update tests/check_headers_and_includes.

991367c922 Merge in the COMPVBITS branch to the trunk. This is a big change to
Memcheck, replacing the 9-bits-per-byte shadow memory representation to a
2-bits-per-byte representation (with possibly a little more on the side) by
taking advantage of the fact that extremely few memory bytes are partially
defined.

For the SPEC2k benchmarks with "test" inputs, this speeds up Memcheck by a
(geometric mean) factor of 1.20, and reduces the size of shadow memory by a
(geometric mean) factor of 4.26.

At the same time, Addrcheck is removed.  It hadn't worked for quite some
time, and with these improvements in Memcheck its raisons-d'etre have
shrivelled so much that it's not worth the effort to keep around.  Hooray!

Nb: this code hasn't been tested on PPC.  If things go wrong, look first in
the fast stack-handling functions (eg. mc_new_mem_stack_160,
MC_(helperc_MAKE_STACK_UNINIT)).

3ae4d1a0ab A cleanup of the redirection stuff.
- Renamed VG_INTERCEPT as VG_REPLACE_FUNCTION to make its purpose
  clearer.

- Renamed VG_WRAPPER as VG_NOTIFY_ON_LOAD to make its purpose cleare.
  Started calling that stuff "load notification".

- Moved various things into m_redir.c, a much more sensible place for
  them.  This reduced the number of exported functions overall.  Renamed
  intercept_demangle() as Z_decode() as part of this.

- Improved the documentation of this stuff, especially in
  pub_core_redir.c.

- Got --run-libc-freeres=yes working again.  It was doing nothing.

- Renamed vg_inject.so as vg_preload_core.so to match
  vg_preload_<tool>.so

- Renamed vg_intercept.c as vg_preloaded.c.  (I kept the "vg_" prefix
  because this filename can appear in stack traces, so the "vg_" is a
  useful hint for users that it belongs to Valgrind.)

- Removed all the Memcheck-specific calls to add_redirect_sym_to_sym()
  from VG_(setup_redirect_table)(), instead using VG_REPLACE_FUNCTION in
  mac_replace_strmem.c, just like vg_replace_malloc.c.  This is the
  right way to do it.  This required moving some of
  coregrind/pub_core_redir.h into the newly added
  include/pub_tool_redir.h.  add_redirect_sym_to_sym() is no longer
  used...

- Now only handing off symbols to m_redir for inspection/decoding after
  they have been deemed to be interesting by the symbol table reader.

- Factored out commonality between the add_redirect_*_to_* functions
  into add_redirect_X_to_X().

- Added "Zh", meaning '-' ('h' for "hyphen"), to the Z-decoding scheme,
  to handle sonames like "ld-linux-x86-64.so.2".

- Added a FAQ explaining the newly found issue of glibc aliasing 
  sometimes causing the wrong function name to appear in stack traces.

- Added a new regtest strchr.c.  It's possible this will fail on some
  platforms.  If so, an alternative output file can be provided, but
  I'd like to see it in practice first.

It's possible that there will be minor breakage on other
platforms/setups, but it should be minimal and easily fixable.

Plus some ordinary cleanups in symtab.c:

- Removed the old optimisation from VG_(addStr)() whereby it kept track
  of the previous 5 added strings and avoiding duplicating any of them.
  Turns out it was barely having any effect any more, and just
  complicated things.

- Made read_symtab() more readable, by introducing a new variable
  "sym_name" and introducing the auxiliary function
  is_symbol_interesting().

- renamed the module variable 'segInfo' as 'segInfo_list' to make it
  more obvious it's a module variable and not just some ordinary local
  variable (which was an easy mistake to make).

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

XXX: [later] remove add_redirect_sym_to_sym, and everything related to
     X_to_sym?  (ie. only need X_to_addr)

XXX: better function names?  all those 'resolved' names...
     [later...]
