Add the possibility to use modules as trace data receivers. The functions
in the module have to be nifs as otherwise complex trace probes will be
very hard to handle (complex means trace probes for ports for example).
This commit changes the way that the ptab->tracer field works from always
being an immediate, to now be NIL if no tracer is present or else be
the tuple {TracerModule, TracerState} where TracerModule is an atom that
is later used to lookup the appropriate tracer callbacks to call and
TracerState is just passed to the tracer callback. The default process and
port tracers have been rewritten to use the new API.
This commit also changes the order which trace messages are delivered to the
potential tracer process. Any enif_send done in a tracer module may be delayed
indefinitely because of lock order issues. If a message is delayed any other
trace message send from that process is also delayed so that order is preserved
for each traced entity. This means that for some trace events (i.e. send/receive)
the events may come in an unintuitive order (receive before send) to the
trace receiver. Timestamps are taken when the trace message is generated so
trace messages from differented processes may arrive with the timestamp
out of order.
Both the erlang:trace and seq_trace:set_system_tracer accept the new tracer
module tracers and also the backwards compatible arguments.

The OSE port is no longer supported and this commit removed it
and any changes related to it. The things that were general
improvements have been left in the code.

This port has support for both non-smp and smp.
It contains a new way to do io checking in which erts_poll_wait
receives the payload of the polled entity. This has implications
for all linked-in drivers.

DTrace was recently patched in Illumos to fail to create an object
file if no probes are found.
* https://www.illumos.org/issues/4248
* https://github.com/illumos/illumos-gate/commit/54a20ab41aadcb81c53e72fc65886e964e9add59
This patch fixes two issues:
* Modify the configure script to pass an object file to `dtrace -G`
that actually invokes a probe.
* Remove creation of `dtrace_user.o` from the dyntrace Makefile. In a
previous commit [1] Scott Fritchie relocated all the user probes
into the VM proper due to difficulties with DTrace probes in shared
libraries. The `dtrace_user.d` file is now empty and generates a
header file with nothing in it. There is no longer any reason to
generate `dtrace_user.o` because all the probes are in the VM. Thus
all the steps for building `dtrace_user.o` have been removed.

With silent rules, the output of make is less verbose and compilation
warnings are easier to spot. Silent rules are disabled by default and
can be disabled or enabled at will by make V=0 and make V=1.

Also make dyntrace NIF's load in on_load instead of init/0

Create directories first, not within implicit rules. If two
'install' instances runs at the same time attempting to create
a directory, one of them may fail with an "File exists" error.
I tried to use order-only prerequisites to create the directories,
but run into two problems: First, order-only prerequisites are
only implemented in Make 3.80 and later. Second, on a computer
running Solaris/Intel 2.8 (with Make 3.80), order-only prerequisites
seemed to work like ordinary prerequisites, causing targets to
be re-built if the timestamp for the directory changed.
Therefore, using a shell command to run mkdir seems to be the
more portable solution.

improvements.
Most notable:
Lots of cross compilation improvements. The old cross compilation
support was more or less non-existing as well as broken. Please,
note that the cross compilation support should still be
considered as experimental. Also note that old cross compilation
configurations cannot be used without modifications. For more
information on cross compiling Erlang/OTP see the
$ERL_TOP/xcomp/README file.
Support for staged install using <url
href="http://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/html_node/DESTDIR.html">D
ESTDIR</url>. The old broken INSTALL_PREFIX has also been fixed.
For more information see the $ERL_TOP/README file.
Documentation of the release target of the top Makefile. For more
information see the $ERL_TOP/README file.
make install now by default creates relative symbolic links
instead of absolute ones. For more information see the
$ERL_TOP/README file.
$ERL_TOP/configure --help=recursive now works and prints help for
all applications with configure scripts.
Doing make install, or make release directly after make all no
longer triggers miscellaneous rebuilds.
Existing bootstrap system is now used when doing make install, or
make release without a preceding make all.
The crypto and ssl applications use the same runtime library path
when dynamically linking against libssl.so and libcrypto.so. The
runtime library search path has also been extended.
The configure scripts of erl_interface and odbc now search for
thread libraries and thread library quirks the same way as erts
do.
The configure script of the odbc application now also looks for
odbc libraries in lib64 and lib/64 directories when building on a
64-bit system.
The config.h.in file in the erl_interface application is now
automatically generated in instead of statically updated which
reduces the risk of configure tests without any effect.
