0afbbf8595 - Rework secondary expansion so we only defer it if there's a possibility
it might be needed: for most situations we parse prereqs immediately as
  we used to.  Reduces memory usage.

43d81ff866 New special variable: .RECIPEPREFIX
Allows the user to reset the prefix character for introducing recipe lines
from the default (tab) to any other single character, and back again.
Also, reworked the manual to consistently use the word "recipe" to describe
the set of commands we use to update a target, instead of the various
phrases used in the past: "commands", "command lines", "command scripts",
etc.

19b6504f8a Incorporate Icarus Sparry's fix for 3330 and 15919, and test cases.
One of our translations disappeared from the translations site so remove it.

The fdl.texi file was changed to not contain any @node entries, so add some
around it in make.texi.

bb4d040fad Fix Savannah bug #20452.
Add a new feature to the test suite suggested by Icarus Sparry:
set a timer before invoking a test, so that if it loops infinitely we
will wake up and have a chance to kill the process and continue.

6ccf33cdbd This is a major update, which switches virtually every allocated-but-not-freed
string into the strcache.  As a side-effect, many more structure members and
function arguments can/should be declared const.

As mentioned in the changelog, unfortunately measurement shows that this
change does not yet reduce memory.  The problem is with secondary expansion:
because of this we store all the prerequisites in the string cache twice.
First we store the prerequisite string after initial expansion but before
secondary expansion, then we store each individual file after secondary
expansion and expand_deps().  I plan to change expand_deps() to be callable
in either context (eval or snap_deps) then have non-second-expansion
targets call expand_deps() during eval, so that we only need to store that
dependency list once.
