POWER PC, add initial Little Endian support
The IBM POWER processor now supports both Big Endian and Little Endian.
This patch renames the #defines with the name ppc64 to ppc64be for the BE
specific code. This patch adds the Little Endian #define ppc64le to the
Additionally, a few functions are renamed to remove BE from the name if the
function is used by BE and LE. Functions that are BE specific have BE put
in the name.
The goals of this patch is to make sure #defines, function names and
variables consistently use PPC64/ppc64 if it refers to BE and LE,
PPC64BE/ppc64be if it is specific to BE, PPC64LE/ppc64le if it is LE
specific. The patch does not break the code for PPC64 Big Endian.
The test files memcheck/tests/atomic_incs.c, tests/power_insn_available.c
and tests/power_insn_available.c are also updated to the new #define
definition for PPC64 BE.

making it easier to understand the memory and/or oom situation.
No functional (user level) change.
* For --profile-heap=yes, sort the cost centers by decreasing size,
so that the most relevant cost centers are closed to the arena
total.
* factorise duplicated code calling a series of print stat functions
* VG_(show_sched_status)
optionally show the host stacktrace
the amount of valgrind stack used by each thread
the exited threads
* various functions: update to add VG_(show_sched_status) new
args, keeping the same info production as before.
* In case of out of memory situation detected by m_mallocfree.c,
reports more information:
valgrind and tool stats
scheduler status (full information)
* gdbserver v.info scheduler :
show full information.
The oom behaviour/reporting was tested using a small
program causing an OOM, and having several threads
(some terminated, some still active).

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.

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.

interface, except for the syscall numbers, into that. Mostly this
means moving include/vki-*.h to include/vki/vki-*.h.
include/pub_tool_basics.h previously dragged in the entire kernel
interface. I've done away with that, so that modules which need to
see the kernel interface now have to include pub_{core,tool}_vki.h
explicitly. This is why there are many modified .c files -- they have
all acquired an extra #include line.
This certainly breaks all platforms except x86. Will fix shortly.

changes from r4341 through r4787 inclusive). That branch is now dead.
Please do not commit anything else to it.
For the most part the merge was not troublesome. The main areas of
uncertainty are:
- build system: I had to import by hand Makefile.core-AM_CPPFLAGS.am
and include it in a couple of places. Building etc seems to still
work, but I haven't tried building the documentation.
- syscall wrappers: Following analysis by Greg & Nick, a whole lot of
stuff was moved from -generic to -linux after the branch was created.
I think that is satisfactorily glued back together now.
- Regtests: although this appears to work, no .out files appear, which
is strange, and makes it hard to diagnose regtest failures. In
particular memcheck/tests/x86/scalar.stderr.exp remains in a
conflicted state.
- amd64 is broken (slightly), and ppc32 will be unbuildable. I'll
attend to the former shortly.

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.
