394ef03a88 Get rid of the --sloppy-malloc= flag and the functionality it
controlled (rounding user malloc requests up to a multiple of 4).
Subsequent changes to memcheck made it more or less pointless, it is a
time waster in the malloc/free path, and nobody ever used it AFAIK.

0e735dde57 In vg_memory.c, allow the stack-change threshold to be specified by a
command-line flag (--max-stackframe=number), rather than hardwiring it
to 2000000.  This is helpful for dealing with unruly Fortran programs
which want to allocate large arrays on the stack.

6c7e08a8f5 Documentation update. This should bring the core of the documentation
up to date with reality.  Please give this a proofread.

I ran out of steam at memcheck/docs/mc_techdocs.html, which is even more
hopelessly out of date.  I will note that cacheprof.org is some kind of
dental insurance company now...

*exactly* the log file name.

6c9a668a42 Add a new variant for --gen-suppressions: --gen-suppressions=all,
which just prints a suppression for all reported errors without asking
questions.

71525a2d57 Updated docs with all the changes that I'm aware of that happened since
Donna converted them to XML.

7a75a9f583 Overhauled the docs. Removed all the HTML files, put in XML files as
converted by Donna.  Hooked it into the build system so they are only
built when specifically asked for, and when doing "make dist".

They're not perfect;  in particular, there are the following problems:
- The plain-text FAQ should be built from FAQ.xml, but this is not
  currently done.  (The text FAQ has been left in for now.)

- The PS/PDF building doesn't work -- it fails with an incomprehensible
  error message which I haven't yet deciphered.

Nonetheless, I'm putting it in so others can see it.
