bcff8e2ae4 Another round of man page cleanups.
Down to only about 100 items left to cleanup! :-)

e6c645fad2 Implemented non-statistical kernel profiling. This is based on
looking at a high resolution clock for each of the following events:
function call, function return, interrupt entry, interrupt exit,
and interesting branches.  The differences between the times of
these events are added at appropriate places in a ordinary histogram
(as if very fast statistical profiling sampled the pc at those
places) so that ordinary gprof can be used to analyze the times.

gmon.h:
Histogram counters need to be 4 bytes for microsecond resolutions.
They will need to be larger for the 586 clock.
The comments were vax-centric and wrong even on vaxes.  Does anyone
disagree?

gprof4.c:
The standard gprof should support counters of all integral sizes
and the size of the counter should be in the gmon header.  This
hack will do until then.  (Use gprof4 -u to examine the results
of non-statistical profiling.)

config/*:
Non-statistical profiling is configured with `config -pp'.
`config -p' still gives ordinary profiling.

kgmon/*:
Non-statistical profiling is enabled with `kgmon -B'.  `kgmon -b'
still enables ordinary profiling (and distables non-statistical
profiling) if non-statistical profiling is configured.

9c0dc173cc Change install' to ${INSTALL}' so that default install flags can be
specified in the top level Makefiles.

d87bdc80f2 Added much-needed new options -[lL], to suppress printing of either the
call-graph or the flat profile, since often you only want one of them.

ff18d3781d New flag -u to suppress functions whose name does not begin with an
underscore.  Use it to avoid seeing badsw when profiling the kernel.

Print times more accurately (e.g. usec in %8.0f format instead of
msec in %8.2f format for averages) if hz >= 10000.  This should have
no effect now since profhz is only 1024.
