- removed some assumptions that arch==x86 in Makefile.am files
- removed ume_arch.h; moved its contents into ume.h. There was no need for
these to be separate.
- moved ume_go.c into an x86/ subdir; gave it the more meaningful name
jmp_with_stack.c in the process (the corresponding function also got the name
change)

global state -- the state is threaded explicitly through via function arguments
and return values. ume.c now has no global variables, which is nice.
Also removed a redundant as_pad() call in stage2's main() which meant
layout_client_space() could be merged with layout_remaining_space().
Also removed a couple of no-longer-used variables and #defines.

Assertions are arguably not the right thing here, but the practice is
widespread and we're not planning on making asserts optional, and it's a lot
better than no checking.

1. It simplifies various things a bit.
2. Valgrind/tools will run out of memory later than currently in many
circumstances. This is good news esp. for Calltree.
Some things were going in V's 128MB heap, and some were going in V's 128MB map
segment. Now all these things are going into a single 256MB map segment.
stage2 has been moved down to 0xb0000000, the start of the 256MB map segment.
The .so files needed by it are placed at 0xb1000000 (that's the map_base).
This required some bootstrapping at startup for memory -- we need to allocate
memory to create the segments skip-list which lets us allocate memory...
solution was to make the first superblock allocated a special static one.
That's pretty simple and enough to get things going.
Removed vg_glibc.c which wasn't doing anything anyway.
Removed VG_(brk) and associated stuff, made all the things that were calling it
call VG_(mmap)() instead.
Removed VG_(valgrind_mmap_end) which was no longer needed.
Rejigged the startup order a bit as necessary.
Moved an important comment from ume.c to vg_main.c where it should be.

cause the stack to be marked as executable in order for them to work.
All assembler files have also had a declaration added so that the
object they generate will be marked as not needing an executable stack.

segment to be moved up to stage2's brk segment. Instead, Valgrind's
use of brk is simulated with mmap. In order to prevent any unwanted use
of the process brk segment, it also sets the RLIMIT_DATA to 0, which will
make brk always fail. glibc's malloc will use mmap to allocate if brk
fails. We try to intercept glibc's brk, but malloc seems to always use the
library-internal version. (The client's use of brk has always been simulated,
and is unaffected by this change.)

no longer exists. One advantage of this is that global
variables/structures needed for communicating between the two can be made
local. Also, the order in which things happen has been simplified.
This is mostly just a big refactoring. Startup is now a fair bit easier to
understand. Dependencies between the various startup stages are fairly well
documented in comments. Also, --help and --version now work properly --
eg. --help gives tool-specific help if --tool was specified. There is still
some parts where things could be reordered and/or simplified, and where the
dependencies aren't clear. These are marked with 'XXX'.
One new feature was added: ability to read options from ~/.valgrindrc and
./.valgrindrc. Part of this is support for specifying tool-specific options
in the form --toolname:tool-specific-option.

code. Currently this is just for signal returns, but there's the start
of sysinfo/vsyscalls support, as used by the TLS libraries.
