Adds VG_(describe_addr)() for generating symbolic descriptions of a
memory address, based on which variables are in scope at the time and
their types.
As part of this change, I restructured the symbol table parsing code,
by splitting the stabs and dwarf-specific parts into their own files.
I also added a new set of vg_symtypes.[ch] files which contains the
type system code and the core of the VG_(describe_addr)().
I've only implemented the stabs type parser. I have not yet implemented
the DWARF2 parser. It looks well-defined but complex.
The only skin which uses this is Helgrind at the moment.
