substantially changed the interface again
I realised that in the last interface I couldn't distinguish between static
and dynamic arrays of length exactly 1. thinking about how to resolve the
problem led me to a different solution that is as easy to use as before,
but easier to implement, easier to extend by new basic types, and as a
bonus I get a natural interface for static arrays.
I then immediately scratched a duplicate code for parsing dynamic arrays,
because it can be easily unified now. also, CF_ITEMS does not expect a
parameter now, because they the compiler messes up line numbers when an
error occurs.

implemented a few functions of the new configuration mechanism:
- memory allocation
- skeleton of future journal functions
- parsers of all basic types and arrays of these types

significant simplifications of the interface
- instead of letting the user to set cf_section.{size,init,commit}
directly, macros CF_{TYPE,INIT,COMMIT} should be used
- another macro CF_ITEMS creates a CT_END-delimited list of cf_items
- all these macros automatically add commas so that declaring a list of
cf_items behaves similarly to other preprocessor-made lists
- removed parameter name from parser hooks, because either the parser
doesn't care and only uses *ptr, or it does and then it should be set up
to pass the name in ptr
- no need to define hooks using _void_ *ptr; one can use any pointers
according to his taste and the hook-function is automatically retyped
- renamed (to make it shorter) some enumerations and macros
- CHECK_VAR_TYPE and CF_FIELD renamed to CHECK_PTR_TYPE and PTR_TO, and
moved to lib/lib.h

interface simplified and a few bugs removed
- array macros renamed and extended
- CF_FUNCTION renamed to CF_PARSER, and a number of parameters and a
pointer to the target variable are passed into the parser function
- init-, commit-, and parser-hooks only get parameters that they need and
they get it in a nice way so that they don't have to work much
- fixed CHECK_VAR_TYPE and a few other thingies

designed the interface of the new configuration reader. no code has been
written yet, because I better wait for an opinion first. a tester app that
currently just checks compilability of all messy cf-declaration macros is
included. don't worry about filenames; they will be eventually renamed.

Cleaned up CONFIG_CENTRUM_xxx switches:
o Everything related to the catalog is controlled by
CONFIG_CENTRUM_CATALOG.
o Paid weights are implied by the catalog and the PL customization,
which doesn't use them, just defines empty {get,set}_paid_weight().
o Nothing depends on CONFIG_CENTRUM_{CZ,SK,PL} now, but I am keeping
them, because it's likely that it will be needed for some exceptions
or experiments again soon.
All customizations compile except for centrum/* with shared libraries,
but the dependencies for that are already fixed in the dev-analyser branch.

Merge with git+ssh://cvs.ucw.cz/projects/sherlock/GIT/sherlock.git#v3.8
The image weighting backports in v3.8 have created some conflicts due to
formatting changes, so I have kept the mainline versions everywhere.
Weights were inherited from v3.8 except for IP and CK[WP]A.

It seems that signal safety of time-related functions is even more subtle
than I thought -- strftime() and localtime_r() can deadlock each other,
probably due to access to time zone information. Replaced strftime() by
a mere sprintf.

xfree() macro has been turned into a regular function. This is much cleaner,
allows for easy memory allocation tracking and also avoids including
<stdlib.h> at random places.

Instead of adding HEAP_INCREASE_POS as Tom requested, I've modified
HEAP_INCREASE. I think this is a better solution, because increasing
the value of the root element is too special and knowing that doesn't
enable us to do any special optimizations anyway.

More work on the multiplexer:
o Changed configuration of search servers and groups, added stand-alone
declarations of groups, merging groups and the default route.
o Search servers now have identifiers to avoid cluttering logs and
parameters by hostnames and ports.
o MUXSS can refer to a search server, group or merging group.
o Bug fix in pinging.
o mux -s now uses the screen width to list databases, not groups.
o Added mux --testconfig, which also dumps all known route objects.

Mux pings now monitor which versions of which databases are offered
by which search servers. Live search servers are also pinged ocassionally
to check that the versions still match.

Changed main_loop shutdown logic once again. The former mechanism with
a single global main_shutdown variable was too inflexible. I have given
all hooks a possibility to either invoke an immediate shutdown or a "soft"
shutdown which is activated if all hooks agree on it (the idea is that
different parts of a single program can have their local opinion on whether
there is more to do or not).
