control the number of lines per page rather than a constant. The variable
can be examined and changed in ddb as '$lines'. Setting the variable to
0 will effectively turn off paging.
- Change db_putchar() to force out pending whitespace before outputting
newlines and carriage returns so that one can rub out content on the
current line via '\r \r' type strings.
- Change the simple pager to rub out the --More-- prompt explicitly when
the routine exits.
- Add some aliases to the simple pager to make it more compatible with
more(1): 'e' and 'j' do a single line. 'd' does half a page, and
'f' does a full page.

a stack trace from ddb, the output will pause with a '--More--' prompt
every 18 lines. If you hit Enter, it will print another line and prompt
again. If you hit space it will output another page and then prompt.
If you hit 'q' or 'x' it will abort the rest of the stack trace.
- Fix the sparc64 userland stack trace to honor the total count of lines
to print. This is useful if your trace happens to walk back onto
0xdeadc0de and gets stuck in an endless loop.

the thread ID and call db_trace_thread().
Since arm has all the logic in db_stack_trace_cmd(), rename the
new DB_COMMAND function to db_stack_trace to avoid conflicts on
arm.
While here, have db_stack_trace parse its own arguments so that
we can use a more natural radix for IDs. If the ID is not a thread
ID, or more precisely when no thread exists with the ID, try if
there's a process with that ID and return the first thread in it.
This makes it easier to print stack traces from the ps output.

It only supports sa1110 (on simics) right now, but xscale support should come
soon.
