Julian Seward 9101880b1f Update documents in preparation for 3.3.0, and restructure them
somewhat to move less relevant material out of the way to some extent.
The main changes are:

* Update date and version info

* Mention other tools in the quick-start guide

* Document --child-silent-after-fork

* Rearrange order of sections in the Valgrind Core chapter, to move
  advanced stuff (client requests) to the end, and compact stuff
  relevant to the majority of users towards the front

* Move MPI debugging stuff from the Core manual (a nonsensical place
  for it) to the Memcheck chapter

* Update the manual's introductory chapter a bit

* Connect up new tech docs summary page, and disconnect old and
  very out of date valgrind/memcheck tech docs

* Add section tags to the Cachegrind manual, to stop xsltproc
  complaining about their absence

Cerion Armour-Brown, cerion@open-works.co.uk
Cerion worked on PowerPC instruction set support using the Vex
dynamic-translation framework.
Jeremy Fitzhardinge, jeremy@valgrind.org
Jeremy wrote Helgrind (in the 2.X line) and totally overhauled
low-level syscall/signal and address space layout stuff, among many
other improvements.
Tom Hughes, tom@valgrind.org
Tom did a vast number of bug fixes, and helped out with support for
more recent Linux/glibc versions.
Nicholas Nethercote, njn@valgrind.org
Nick did the core/tool generalisation, wrote Cachegrind and Massif,
and tons of other stuff.
Paul Mackerras
Paul did a lot of the initial per-architecture factoring that forms
the basis of the 3.0 line and is also to be seen in 2.4.0. He also did
UCode-based dynamic translation support for PowerPC, and created a set
of ppc-linux derivatives of the 2.X release line.
Dirk Mueller, dmuell@gmx.net
Dirk contributed the malloc-free mismatch checking stuff and various
other bits and pieces, and acted as our KDE liaison.
Donna Robinson, donna@terpsichore.ws
Keeper of the very excellent http://www.valgrind.org.
Julian Seward, julian@valgrind.org
Julian was the original designer and author of Valgrind, created the
dynamic translation framework, wrote Memcheck and Addrcheck, and did
lots of other things.
Robert Walsh, rjwalsh@valgrind.org
Robert added file descriptor leakage checking, new library
interception machinery, support for client allocation pools, and minor
other tweakage.
Josef Weidendorfer, Josef.Weidendorfer@gmx.de.
Josef wrote Callgrind and the associated KCachegrind GUI.
Frederic Gobry helped with autoconf and automake. Daniel Berlin
modified readelf's dwarf2 source line reader, written by Nick Clifton,
for use in Valgrind. Michael Matz and Simon Hausmann modified the GNU
binutils demangler(s) for use in Valgrind.
And lots and lots of other people sent bug reports, patches, and very
helpful feedback.
