Compiler and runtime: Added byte codes F_PUSH_CATCHES and F_CATCH_AT. These are needed to be able to save and restore the recovery context for generator functions. Updates the code generators for quite a few machine code backends.

Merge branch 'marty/call_frames' into 8.1 This introduces the --with-mc-stack-frames configure option, which will instruct the machine code generator to insert proper stack frames (currently only supported on X86-64). This is useful for profiling, especially in combination with Debug.generate_perf_map() on Linux.
Inline the F_CATCH opcode (on AMD64 so far). This is a prerequisite for MACHINE_CODE_STACK_FRAMES, since inter_return_opcode_F_CATCH will "inject" itself on the C stack when the first F_CATCH opcode is encountered (and won't vanish until inter return, which may occur in an outer Pike frame).
Replace dynamic_buffer API everywhere This change should be purely cosmetic. It replaces the old dynamic_buffer API by the corresponding byte_buffer API everywhere. The wrapper definitions in dynamic_buffer.h will remain for now.
Compiler [sparc]: Added kludge to fix the code-generator for sparc. Some of the branch opcodes were broken on sparc when PIKE_DEBUG wasn't active. This is a temporary workaround.
Merge branch '7.9' into gobject-introspection

Doc: Added some more doc about the code generator.
Compiler: Added code-generation mode OPCODE_INLINE_RETURN.
Made IA32 machine code compatible with Darwin IA32 ABI. Enabled machine code for Darwin. Rev: src/code/README.txt:1.20 Rev: src/code/ia32.h:1.22 Rev: src/configure.in:1.697 Rev: src/interpret.c:1.301
Small clarification. Rev: src/code/README.txt:1.27
Renamed read_data() to read_program_data() since read_data conflicted with old code. Rev: src/code/README.txt:1.26 Rev: src/code/bytecode.h:1.13 Rev: src/code/ia32.h:1.27 Rev: src/code/ppc32.h:1.27 Rev: src/code/sparc.h:1.29 Rev: src/encode.c:1.236
Added read_data() to the required API. Rev: src/code/README.txt:1.25 Rev: src/code/bytecode.h:1.12 Rev: src/code/ia32.h:1.26 Rev: src/code/ppc32.h:1.26 Rev: src/code/sparc.h:1.28
Some clarifications and updates. Rev: src/code/README.txt:1.24
Fixed thread yield bug for tight loops when OPCODE_INLINE_BRANCH is used. Note: The ppc backend needs fixing too. Rev: src/code/README.txt:1.23 Rev: src/code/ia32.c:1.37 Rev: src/code/ia32.h:1.23 Rev: src/interpret.c:1.340 Rev: src/interpret.h:1.144 Rev: src/peep.c:1.96
Added GLOBAL_DEF_PROG_COUNTER. Rev: src/code/README.txt:1.22 Rev: src/interpret.c:1.321
Added the possibility for opcodes to pass the jump address through the return value instead of changing PROG_COUNTER directly. Any opcode which might jump is now a JUMP opcode, and the old jump opcodes are now PTRJUMP.

Added EXIT_MACHINE_CODE to clean up after CALL_MACHINE_CODE, so that we don't have to rely on that the compiler can live with a clobbered stack pointer at the bottom of eval_instruction_low. Rev: src/code/README.txt:1.20 Rev: src/interpret.c:1.299
