to reflect the new license.
We understand that people may be surprised that we're moving the header
entirely to discuss the new license. We checked this carefully with the
Foundation's lawyer and we believe this is the correct approach.
Essentially, all code in the project is now made available by the LLVM
project under our new license, so you will see that the license headers
include that license only. Some of our contributors have contributed
code under our old license, and accordingly, we have retained a copy of
our old license notice in the top-level files in each project and
repository.

There are several problems with the current annotations (AnnotateRWLockCreate and friends):
- they don't fully support deadlock detection (we need a hook _before_ mutex lock)
- they don't support insertion of random artificial delays to perturb execution (again we need a hook _before_ mutex lock)
- they don't support setting extended mutex attributes like read/write reentrancy (only "linker init" was bolted on)
- they don't support setting mutex attributes if a mutex don't have a "constructor" (e.g. static, Java, Go mutexes)
- they don't ignore synchronization inside of lock/unlock operations which leads to slowdown and false negatives
The new annotations solve of the above problems. See tsan_interface.h for the interface specification and comments.

This mirrors r225239 to all the rest sanitizers:
ASan, DFSan, LSan, MSan, TSan, UBSan.
Now the runtime flag type, name, default value and
description is located in the single place in the
.inc file.

Currently correct programs can deadlock after fork, because atomic operations and async-signal-safe calls are not async-signal-safe under tsan.
With this change:
- if a single-threaded program forks, the child continues running with verification enabled (the tsan background thread is recreated as well)
- if a multi-threaded program forks, then the child runs with verification disabled (memory accesses, atomic operations and interceptors are disabled); it's expected that it will exec soon anyway
- if the child tries to create more threads after multi-threaded fork, the program aborts with error message
- die_after_fork flag is added that allows to continue running, but all bets are off

tsan runtime shutdown is problematic for 2 reasons:
1. others crash during shutdown
2. we have to override user exit status (don't know it and can't return from atexit handler)

Status:
The tool is known to work on large real-life applications, but still has quite a few rough edges.
Nothing is guaranteed yet.
The tool works on x86_64 Linux.
Support for 64-bit MacOS 10.7+ is planned for late 2012.
Support for 32-bit OSes is doable, but problematic and not yet planed.
Further commits coming:
- tests
- makefiles
- documentation
- clang driver patch
