threads to have thread-private data which is quickly accessible via a
segment in the GDT, stored in %gs. The patch implements the relevent

- docs: removed all traces (included renaming coregrind_skins.html to

- in the usage messages
- in error messages
Also did in in some places that I judged were unlikely to cause clashes with
existing workspaces:
- in the header comments of many files (eg. "This file is part of Memcheck, a
Valgrind tool for...")
- in the regtests script
- in the .supp files
- in AUTHORS
- in README_MISSING_SYSCALL_OR_IOCTL
Also update the AUTHORS file to mention Jeremy.
