Frank Ch. Eigler 09338a2590 abidb: Introduce a tool to manage the ABI of a Linux distribution 
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!

README 

This is the Application Binary Interface Generic Analysis and
Instrumentation Library.

It aims at constructing, manipulating, serializing and de-serializing
ABI-relevant artifacts.

The set of artifacts that we are intersted is made of quantities like
types, variable, functions and declarations of a given library or
program.  For a given library or program this set of quantities is
called an ABI corpus.

This library aims at (among other things) providing a way to compare
two ABI Corpora (apparently the plural of corpus is copora, heh,
that's cool), provide detailed information about their differences,
and help build tools to infer interesting conclusions about these
differences.
