- Latest CTF changes from upstream
- add ctf_dict_set_flag, ctf_lookup_enumerator, ctf_lookup_enumerator_next,
ctf_arc_lookup_enumerator_next; consider enums with differing enumerators
to be conflicting
- add documentation to ctf-api.h
- allow modification of ctf_opened dicts and opening of foreign-
endian older dicts
- looking up types by name prefers non-bitfields if possible
- bugfixes to parent propagation, rewriting of existing dicts,
ctf_archive_count, CU-mapped links, and dumping and linking of
non-root-visible types.
- fix a bunch of small leaks and one big one (on ctf_open error)
- fix a write into freed memory after ctf_rollback and writeout
- internal improvements to serialization, name lookup, symbol
lookup, string handling, and more
- explicitly disable zstd support (enabling requires addition of zstd to
the .so scripts)
