This patch introduces a new tool named abidb. It manages a Git
repository of the Application Binary Interfaces of a set of shared
libraries. Those ABIs are stored in the Git repository in the form of
ABIXML files.
The tool then supports the verification of the ABI compatibility of a
given binary against the stored ABIs of shared libraries.
* configure.ac: Condition building abidb on the presence of python
and the required modules.
* doc/manuals/Makefile.am: Add the abidb.rst documentation to
source distribution. Distribute the abidb.1 manpage file as well.
* doc/manuals/abidb.rst: New documentation file.
* doc/manuals/conf.py: Configure the generation of the abidb.1
manage from the abidb.rst file above.
* doc/manuals/libabigail-tools.rst: Add a reference to the new
abidb tool.
* tests/Makefile.am: Register runabidb1.sh and runabidb2.sh as
tests for abidb. Register runabidb1.sh.in and runabidb2.sh.in as
input files for autoconf generated runabidb1.sh and runabidb2.sh.
* tests/data/Makefile.am: Add abidb2client.c, abidb2so.c and
abidb2soBAD.c to source distribution.
* tests/data/abidb2client.c: New source file for test input binaries.
* tests/data/abidb2so.c: Likewise.
* tests/data/abidb2soBAD.c: Likewise.
* tests/runtestabidb1.sh.in: New test script input for autoconf generation.
* tests/runtestabidb2.sh.in: Likewise.
* tools/Makefile.am: Add the new abidb tool to the set of tools.
* tools/abidb: The New Tool, ladies and gentlemen!
