63bfdbc99f Reinstate timestamping, sort-of, having trashed VG_(ctime) as part of
the glibc-removal process.  Timestamps are now printed in terms of
elapsed wallclock time since startup, shown as days, hours, minutes,
seconds and milliseconds.  The arithmetic is done with 32-bit unsigned
ints, so people doing Valgrind runs that last longer than 49.71 days
are going to see some funny results :-)

7ee131a3e3 Increase the threshold above which new errors are not shown from 300
unique / 30000 total to 1000 unique / 100000 total.  Programs are
generally bigger now than 3 years ago.

2aa34e2afe Remove all remaining references to pointercheck. It's sad to see it
go, but realistically we can't implement it portably, at least without
considerable performance overhead and some additional complexity.

f174930b23 Final commit for the initial modularisation pass:
- Broke part of m_scheduler off into a new module m_threadstate.  It
  contains ThreadState, VG_(threads)[] and some basic operations on the
  thread table.  All simple stuff, the complex stuff stays in m_scheduler.
  This avoids lots of circular dependencies between m_scheduler and other
  modules.

- Managed to finally remove core.h and tool.h, double hurrah!

- Introduced pub_tool_basics.h and pub_core_basics.h, one of which is
  include by every single C file.

- Lots of little cleanups and changes related to the above.

- I even did a small amount of documentation updating.

5d35d711ba Implement stack registration client requests. See the documentation
in the user manual for usage information.  The stack_changes.c file in
corecheck/tests contains a short example.

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hopelessly out of date.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...

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.
