Release 0.8 of the User Space Tracer - UST

Tarball available at: http://lttng.org/files/ust/releases/ust-0.8.tar.gz

Major change is that the tracepoint API now takes a void *data pointer
as its first argument which must be provided when connecting the tracepoint. This allows multiple probes with the same function to be
connected as long as the data pointers provided are different.

Changelog:
        * API CHANGE!!! Add data pointer to tracepoint probe
        void *data is always the first argument to a tracepoint probe
        * License LGPGv2.1 text and information added
        * Update COPYING file
        * Add TRACE_EVENT api proposal, not finalised
        NOT usable at this point. Only bound to a printf.
        ustctl command for listing trace event
        * Multiple fixes
        Compilation warnings
        Value and error handling
        Fix bugs introduce by prior commits
        Security fix (CVE-2010-3386)
        Add exit status for ustctl
        Change malloc to zmalloc for most of UST
        Remove unused code, syntax cleanup and consistency for markers
        * New UST internal communication protocol
        Add message headers
        Usage of epoll
        * New testcases
        * Try to decrease namespace pollution
