Nick Mathewson b16d6453ad Rewrite updateVersions script in Python, add datestamp functionality.
This updateVersions.pl script was one of the only essential perl
scripts left in out maint system, and was the only one that used
autoconf to fill in the script.

This script adds a feature to define an APPROX_RELEASE_DATE macro
that is updated when the version changes.  We'll use this to
implement prop297, so that we have an accurate view of when a
release date happens.

The scripts directory holds tools for use in building, generating, testing,
and maintaining the Tor source code.  It is mainly for use by developers.

Code maintenance scripts
------------------------

maint/checkLogs.pl -- Verify that Tor log statements are unique.

maint/check_config_macros.pl -- Look for autoconf tests whose results are
never used.

maint/checkOptionDocs.pl -- Make sure that Tor options are documented in the
manpage, and that the manpage only documents real Tor options.

maint/checkSpaces.pl -- Style checker for the Tor source code.  Mainly checks
whitespace.

maint/findMergedChanges.pl -- Find a set of changes/* files that have been
merged into an upstream version.

maint/format_changelog.py -- Flow the changelog into the proper format.

maint/redox.py -- Find places that should have DOCDOC comments to indicate a
need for doxygen comments, and put those comments there.

maint/updateVersions.pl -- Update the version number in the .nsi and windows
orconfig.h files.


Testing scripts
---------------

test/chutney-git-bisect.sh -- a git bisect run script that bisects using
chutney. The script builds tor and tor-gencert, then runs chutney. The script
takes optional arguments for out-of-tree builds, and specific chutney network
flavours. You should copy this script before using it with git bisect, so that
it doesn't change (or disappear) during bisection.

test/cov-blame -- Mash up the results of gcov with git blame.  Mainly useful
to find out who has been writing untested code.

test/cov-diff -- Compare two directories of gcov files to identify changed
lines without coverage.

test/coverage -- Generates a directory full of gcov files. You need to use
this script instead of calling gcov directly because of our confusingly named
object files.

test/scan-build.sh -- Example script for invoking clang's scan-build
static analysis tools.


Code generation scripts
-----------------------

codegen/gen_linux_syscalls.pl -- Generate a table mapping linux syscall
numbers to their names.

codegen/gen_server_ciphers.py -- Generate a sorted list of TLS ciphersuites
for servers to choose from.

codegen/get_mozilla_ciphers.py -- Generate a list of TLS ciphersuites for
clients to use in order to look like Firefox.

Code transformation scripts
---------------------------

coccinelle/calloc.cocci -- Transform code to replace variants of
malloc(a*b) with calloc(a,b)
