This patch moves CLD from using manual data serialization to using XDR (via
rpcgen). Both the packet header and the message body are now serialized and
deserialized using XDR. This makes it easy to have a variable-length packet
header, as well as a variable-length message body.

This patch introduces a minor libcldc API change in struct cldc_call_opts.

v2 changes:
* Added __cld prefix to functions in cld_fmt.c

* When decoding CMT_GET messages, we should store the payload in the
session structure, rather than in cldc_call_opts.

* Got rid of pkt_is_first, pkt_is_last, in favor of a flags-based approach.

* Killed CLD_MAX_PKT_MSG. It's more efficient to only allocate as much space
as you need, rather than always allocating space for 128 packets in a message.

* Created CLD_MAX_PAYLOAD_SZ to mean the maximum size of the data that can be
sent with GET or PUT. This is different (and smaller than!) the maximum
message size.

* automake: Add cld_msg_rpc.h to BUILT_SOURCES

* automake: Add lib dir to INCLUDES

* automake: "make clean" now deletes XDR build products

Looking good...  we are definitely getting closer.

Currently, it still does not pass "make distcheck", which presages a lot of installation problems. Notably,
	#include <lib/cld_msg_rpc.h>
is not consistent with the rest of the headers, producing things such as "make distcheck" build breakage:

libtool: compile:  gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I../../lib -I.. -I../../include -pthread -I/usr/include/glib-2.0 -I/usr/lib64/glib-2.0/include -g -O2 -MT cldc.lo -MD -MP -MF .deps/cldc.Tpo -c ../../lib/cldc.c  -fPIC -DPIC -o .libs/cldc.o
In file included from ../../lib/cldc.c:37:
../../include/cldc.h:26:29: error: lib/cld_msg_rpc.h: No such file or directory

You will either need to move the header to $cld/include/ or update INCLUDES in various */Makefile.am files to reference $(top_srcdir)/lib (which I see you actually did, in a few cases).

Also, it would be nice if this did not introduce warnings. A big point with the testsuite, and minor point with compiler warnings, is that -- more than anything else -- we do not want to introduce regressions.
