perlxs.pod: remove section on %v
The XS parser supported an extremely obscure bit of functionality which
made use of the %v package variable to maintain state between different
bits of typemap processing. This was accidentally broken in 5.10.0:
refactoring removed the 'use vars "%v"' line, and no one seemed to
notice or care.
Also, the sole example of its use in the docs seemed to be obscure,
confusing and probably wrong.
There was a consensus in the discussion at
http://nntp.perl.org/group/perl.perl5.porters/267667
that we should stop documenting this feature rather than trying to fix
it.

perlxs.pod: reindent and reformat code examples
The various XS code examples had odd and inconsistent indentation (often
with 5 leading spaces) and inconsistent formatting, e.g. foo(a,b) vs
foo( a, b ) vs foo(a, b). Fix that, and also remove any tab chars.
Whitespace-only change.

perlxs.pod: delete most non-ref sections
This commit is a simple cut which deletes several '=head2' sections from
perlxs.pod. The next commit will tidy up and fix any broken links etc.
These sections are more tutorial-like, and aren't in line with the goal
of this branch that perlxs.pod becomes purely a reference manual for XS.
Any relevant information from these sections may be incorporated later
into new sections in perlxs.pod and/or be included in a future rewrite
of perlxstut.pod.
The sections deleted are:
=head2 Introduction
=head2 On The Road
=head2 The Anatomy of an XSUB
=head2 The Argument Stack
=head2 The RETVAL Variable
=head2 Returning SVs, AVs and HVs through RETVAL
=head2 Returning Undef And Empty Lists
=head2 Interface Strategy
=head2 Perl Objects And C Structures

perlxs.pod: reorder sections
This big commit does a series of plain cut+pastes to reorder all the
=head2 sections within the file.
This changes the order from semi-random into roughly the order the
various XS keywords would appear within an XS file, and then within an
XSUB declaration/definition.
No changes have been made to the text: simply that all lines from a
particular '^=head2' up until the next head2 have been cut+paste as
a single unit.
No attempt has been made yet to make the text consistent with the new
ordering; that will be done by the subsequent commits of this branch.
The previous ordering in this file was:
=head1 NAME
=head1 DESCRIPTION
=head2 The MODULE Keyword
=head2 The PACKAGE Keyword
=head2 The PREFIX Keyword
=head2 The OUTPUT: Keyword
=head2 The NO_OUTPUT Keyword
=head2 The CODE: Keyword

perlxs.pod: add group headers
Following the previous commit's reordering of the all the =head2
sections, demote most of the =head2 headers to =head3, and add some new
=head2 headers which group together related headers.
Also add some =head3's for a few missing keywords.
Subsequent commits will flesh out the new sections.

-----------
perlxs.pod: add a new introductory part
Four commits ago, I removed most of the general text sections in
perlxs (i.e. the ones not specifically about a particular keyword).
Now this commit adds a completely new introductory part to perlxs, about
1200 lines long. It represents an attempt to write a background to what
XS and XSUBs, SVs, typemaps etc are, in a complete and modern way.
The existing reference section for each keyword follows it.
I tried to avoid getting too tutorial-like (that's what perlxstut is
for), but I may have crossed the line in various places. In particular
it has a new section which could have been titled "all the bits of
perlguts you need to know in order to write non-trivial XSUBs without
having to actually read perlguts".

perlxs.pod: update OVERLOAD, add T_PTROBJ
First, add a new subsection
=head3 T_PTROBJ and opaque handles
to the TYPEMAPs section explaining how this typemap can be used to
map between Perl objects and C library handles. It provides a
fully-worked example of wrapping a simple arithmetic library.
Then completely rewrite the
=head3 The OVERLOAD: Keyword
section. In particular, it now refers to the new T_PTROBJ example and
shows how it can be extended to use overloading.
