This changeset fixes a huge pile of problems, as indicated in the
error log of the Doxygen run after merging all the recent Doxygen improvements
unfortunately, auto-linking does still not work at various places.
There is no clear indication what might be the problem.
Possibly the rather unstable Sqlite support in this Doxygen version
is the cause. Anyway, needs to be investigated further.

Lumiera uses Brittish spelling. Add an according note to the styleguide.
Quite some code which was hold back in favor of the config and plugin stuff
implements:
* mmapcache: mru cache for unused memory mappings
* mmap: single mmaped areas
* mmapings: manages mmaps established for one filedescriptor
Acquiring mutexes is now wraped in a easy to use MUTEX_SECTION macro.
This scheme will be extended for chained lock propagation soon.
Notes:
* NoBug resourcemanagement is now part of the lower layer,
RESOURCE_ENTER/RESOUCE_LEAVE are maintained automatically
* one must still call RESOURCE_ANNOUNCE/RESOURCE_FORGET, because we want
to maintain high level information about resources.
* MUTEX_SECTIONS must not be left with any kind of jump
* add 'backend' for backend global initialization/destruction
and common functions.
* WIP: 'file' acts as interface to named files, provides posix
filehandles with and acquire/release function pair.
* 'filehandle' manages posix filehandles internally, refcounted.
* WIP: 'filehandlecache' keeps unused filehandles in a MRU cache
* WIP: test for filehandle management
* improved filedescriptor test
We have 'File' which associates a name with a file and will be used to
offer an interface for the application.
Posix 'Filehandles' which are managed in a 'Filehandlecache' to utilize
a limited number of fd's at optimum.
Internally we use 'Filedescriptor's which manage files, mapping and all
kinds of metadata. Filedescriptors weak referenced by a registry and freed
when the last user vanishes.
