Some aids for debugging: stack dumping, register dumping, and printing
failing assertion conditions.
Compiled on ppc64, arm64, i386, x86_64.
v4:
* Moved around arch and asm files per Linux style (hopefully).
* Added --[enable|disable]-pretty-print-stacks to ./configure.
This has obviated the -p command-line option in
./run_tests.sh that I introduced in v1.
* Fixed arch-neutral backtrace so backtrace itself isn't
included.
v3:
* Renamed functions to match standard backtrace functions
* Added asm-generic stack walker that uses __builtin_return_address.
* Moved offset out of libcflat and into pretty printer
* Made pretty printer more robust w.r.t. errors: now it just
continues printing.
v2:
* Fixed a bunch tests on x86 that broke with
-fno-omit-frame-pointer.
* Only use -fno-omit-frame-pointer on x86. I suspect arm & ppc
will have similar problems that I fixed for x86.
