This starts the proposed changes in
http://www.pipapo.org/pipawiki/Lumiera/DesignProcess/ApplicationStructure
* Moving all necessary files from src/backend to src/lumiera
* create a small helloworld main app
* setup the buildsystem to build it all
* fix include paths at many places
The testsuite is not yet fixed here, that will be the next commit
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
* fix configure.ac to check for dlopen, introduce $(LUMIERA_PLUGIN_LIBS)
* Generic pluginloader finished, all plugins get loaded and registered at
start for now, it is prepared for on-demand loading and unloading but
not implemented because that needs the plugindb.
- plugin unloading not yet finished, this asserts at the end
* plugin{.h,.c} are back but work in progress
* the interfaceregistry also manages a pluginregistry, makes no much sense
to isolate it yet, both share a mutex and are commonly used together
All interfaces which are available get registered in a tree.
This will be used internal for lookup interfaces. The higher level calls
will be an amalgamation of this lookup and the upcoming plugindb and
loader.

wordlists are simple not quoted words delimited by semicolon, tab, space or
commas. Some special functions will allow to access each of this words by
index etc.
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.
