Internals
- The 'HACKING' file is obsolete. The contents have been moved into
a section of the guestfs(3) manual page.
- libguestfs-test-tool simplified. It no longer needs the static

- rpcgen-generated files are compiled with -fno-strict-aliasing
which should be safer (thanks Matt Booth).
- virt-resize was rewritten in OCaml.
- guestfish and other tools tested with valgrind; some memory leaks
were fixed.
Bugs fixed
