the opportunity to move the handlers from syswrap-generic.c (which
they certainly aren't) to syswrap-linux.c. Fixes#175044.

relatively minor extensions to m_debuginfo, a major overhaul of
m_debuginfo/readdwarf3.c to get its space usage under control, and
changes throughout the system to enable heap-use profiling.
The majority of the merged changes were committed into
branches/PTRCHECK as the following revs: 8591 8595 8598 8599 8601 and
8161.

support to Memcheck for tracking the origin of uninitialised values,
if you use the --track-origins=yes flag.
This currently causes some Memcheck regression tests to fail, because
they now print an extra line of advisory text in their output. This
will be fixed.
The core-tool interface is slightly changed. The version number for
the interface needs to be incremented.

the new thread's stack, then make the stack unwinder use that information
to make a better guess at the stack bounds.
This helps avoid crashes trying to unwind the stack under wine when
the starting point is a routine without a proper stack frame.

interface:
r6805: Modify two thread-notification events in the core-tool
interface. This removes track_post_thread_create and
track_post_thread_join. The core can only see low level thread
creation and exiting, and has no idea about pthread-level concepts
like "pthread_create" and "pthread_join", so these are a bit
ambiguous.
Replace them with track_pre_thread_ll_create, which is notified before
a new thread makes any memory references, and
track_pre_thread_ll_exit, which is notified just before the new thread
exits, that is, after it has made its last memory reference.
r6823: Core-tool interface: give 'needs_tool_errors' an extra Boolean
indicating whether or not the core should print thread id's on error
messages.

handling: why PRE(sys_sigreturn) has to construct a fake syscall
return value which, when written back to the guest state, leaves it
unchanged. It's only taken me about 3 years to realise why :-)
Fixes to ppc platforms to follow.

- track SysRes changes
- track VG_(am_find_nsegment) const-ness change
- increase number of client syscall args supported from 6 to 8
- simplify type SyscallStatus. Simply hold a copy of the SysRes
for the syscall rather than have this be a data structure
incorporating something very similar to the fields of a SysRes,
and more besides. Change various macros in priv_types_n_macros.h
to match.
- syswrap-main.c: instantiate the various impedance-matching
functions for AIX.

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.

Also expands pathname arguments as strings in a lot more system call
trace messages and fixed the poll wrapper to not be x86 specific.

clever idea. There's no reason to assume the assembler is in
.text-mode when it encounters them, and as gcc 2.96 rudely
demonstrates, sometimes it isn't. So put .text in front of all of
them.

with respect to syscalls. It is detailed and comprehensive but does
not offer a way to deal with minor deviations in behaviour from the
vanilla kernel sources, either due to running a hacked kernel or
running a vanilla kernel with a custom kernel module loaded.
This commit adds a flexible way to handle such cases without polluting
the vanilla handler syswrap-*.c files or their supporting vki_*.h
header files. For each OS, a syswrap-OS-variants.c file is added,
containing wrappers for variants of OS. A new command line flag
--kernel-variants= carries a comma separated list of variant names
that apply to the current run. There are no other changes.
