* Redo dictionnary handling to remove recursion and bugs

+ some misc test cleanup

* Beginning of core implementation

This simplifies the build system quite a lot, and reduce compilation
times when PIC is actually needed.

If you really mind the extra overhead of PIC, use:
./configure --enable-libtool --enable-static --disable-shared

What is currently broken:
 * Some playlist demuxers (shout, dvb and pls)
 * DAAP
 * BeOS playlist
 * GPE playlist, I suppose

What has some trouble:
 * Meta handling in several demuxers (most notably TS)
 * Skins2 playlist (doesn't refresh correctly)
 * OS X playlist (see bigben's latest commits)

 * Remove changeset thing from shared libvlc versioning until someone cares to implement it properly within the build system

modules/misc/playlist/*, modules/access/http.c: XSPF playlist support
(read and write) by Daniel Stranger. Many thanks

src/misc/modules.c, src/misc/strings.c, include/vlc_strings.h: string
handling functions.

modules/control/http/*, modules/services_discovery/upnp_intel.cpp: use
these string handling functions.

Shame on me

 - Don't link builtins against anything (dependencies are linked in libvlc)
 - Don't mangle name of underlying libraries

with actual system library (seems to fix weird compilation problem with
flac and theora builtins)

tree configuration is modified

as it did never worked properly, if at all with these
(you should use libtool to build a shared libvlc instead)

Should work fine (ie. better than --enable-shared-libvlc) on Linux,
should work on Mac OS X (except for packaging), while shared libvlc doesn't.

Won't work on Win32 with the current Win32 contrib. Stick to static libvlc or
use --enable-shared-libvlc for now.
