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.

0db27515b1 Putting "dist_" in front of a "_DATA" variable means it is included in "make
dist".  This avoids the need to put it in "EXTRA_DIST", and saves a few lines
in all the docs Makefile.am files.

fc9a6bbced Updated the README file. It had lots of out-of-date and incorrect information
in it, much of it from 1.0.X days.  Did it in such a way that if it doesn't get
touched (and it undoubtedly won't) it won't really go out of date, eg. by
removing temporary details like version numbers, dates, details of specific
software incompatibilities.  It's much better to be vague but correct, than
precise but incorrect;  having incorrect info in a file as important as the
README is bad.  Also removed the README_KDE3_FOLKS file because it's pretty
redundant now.  Also added some changes that had been made in the stable branch
but not the HEAD.

Did similar, but smaller changes to README_DEVELOPERS and README_PACKAGERS.

Also updated the valgrind.spec.in file to use the new, post-1.0.X description
in the README.

Also fixed a minor omission in Addrcheck's docs.

MERGE TO STABLE

fb2d543ee8 Started to rescind the name "skin", replacing it with "tool". Did this in all
the places that normal users will see:

  - command line: --tool=foo (although --skin=foo still works)
  - docs: removed all traces (included renaming coregrind_skins.html to
    coregrind_tools.html)
  - 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.

0f6cf30022 Restructure the documentation to try and make it hang together better.
Majorly improved.  Still a lot to do, but the structure is better.

5fd0ef7ca3 Just call me Mr Brain-Dead Moron. Move the documentation sources to
where I _should_ have put them in the first place, and fix up the
Makefile.am's accordingly.  'make' and 'make install' now work.

Linked in new docs into the top-level docs index.
