Update selector to utilize new garbage collection trace tags.

The et application must continue to use erlang:now/0 in order to obtain timestamps that are consistent with timestamps obtained from tracing. The application has been updated to suppress the warning for erlang:now/0.

Application upgrade (appup) files are corrected for the following applications:

asn1, common_test, compiler, crypto, debugger, dialyzer, edoc, eldap, erl_docgen, et, eunit, gs, hipe, inets, observer, odbc, os_mon, otp_mibs, parsetools, percept, public_key, reltool, runtime_tools, ssh, syntax_tools, test_server, tools, typer, webtool, wx, xmerl

A new test utility for testing appup files is added to test_server. This is now used by most applications in OTP.

(Thanks to Tobias Schlager)

Thanks to Olle Mattsson the GUI parts are rewritten to use wxWidgets. For the time being it is still possible to use the old GS based version of the tool, but it is deprecated. The wxWidgets based version is started by default.

A print function has been added, in order to enable printing of sequence charts.

A new tutorial has been added to the documentation. It is based on Jayson Vantuyl's article http://souja.net/2009/04/making-sense-of-erlangs-event-tracer.html.

The functions et:trace_me/4 and et:trace_me/5 has been introduced in order to replace the deprecated functions et:report_event/4 and et:report_event/5. Hopefully the new names makes it a little more obvious what the intended usage of the functions are.

The max_events configuration parameter to et_viewer is not used any more. Now the event cache in the Viewer only contains those events that actually are displayed in the GUI.
