This library provides thread-unsafe fgets()- and fread()-like
functions where the caller does not have to supply a buffer. It
maintains a couple of static buffers and provides an API to use
them.
[rr: allow input from files other than stdin]
[jn: with tests, documentation, and error handling improvements]

Intern strings so they can be compared by address and stored without
wasting space.
This library uses the macros in the obj_pool.h and trp.h to create a
memory pool for strings and expose an API for handling them.
[rr: added API docs]
[jn: with some API simplifications, new documentation and tests]

Provide macros to generate a type-specific treap implementation and
various functions to operate on it. It uses obj_pool.h to store memory
nodes in a treap. Previously committed nodes are never removed from
the pool; after any *_commit operation, it is assumed (correctly, in
the case of svn-fast-export) that someone else must care about them.
Treaps provide a memory-efficient binary search tree structure.
Insertion/deletion/search are about as about as fast in the average
case as red-black trees and the chances of worst-case behavior are
vanishingly small, thanks to (pseudo-)randomness. The bad worst-case
behavior is a small price to pay, given that treaps are much simpler
to implement.

[db: Altered to reference nodes by offset from a common base pointer]
[db: Bob Jenkins' hashing implementation dropped for Knuth's]
[db: Methods unnecessary for search and insert dropped]
[rr: Squelched compiler warnings]
[db: Added support for immutable treap nodes]
[jn: Reintroduced treap_nsearch(); with tests]

Add a memory pool library implemented using C macros. The
obj_pool_gen() macro creates a type-specific memory pool.
The memory pool library is distinguished from the existing specialized
allocators in alloc.c by using a contiguous block for all allocations.
This means that on one hand, long-lived pointers have to be written as
offsets, since the base address changes as the pool grows, but on the
other hand, the entire pool can be easily written to the file system.
This could allow the memory pool to persist between runs of an
application.
For the svn importer, such a facility is useful because each svn
revision can copy trees and files from any previous revision. The
relevant information for all revisions has to persist somehow to
support incremental runs.
[rr: minor cleanups]
[jn: added tests; removed file system backing for now]
