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.

instructions.

858c09b74c Deleted FAQ #2, as it is no longer relevant for the head, thanks to Jeremy's
syscalls changes.

ad476e4c65 Fixed the static-link check at startup -- it was broken for scripts. Refine
FAQ #5 accordingly.

01e3345f23 At startup, now tests if program is statically linked. Bails with a useful
message if so.  If anyone thinks this will break anything, please yell.

Updated FAQ #5 correspondingly, added info on how to combine static and dynamic
libraries.

2fc8530d61 Re-added the FAQ that was lost a while back, possibly when I did the original
core/skin split.  Added a couple more questions+answers.
