Mesa 5.1 release

Mesa 5.1 can now be downloaded from 
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=3

This is a development release with lots of new features (it may not be 
100% stable).  When 5.1 is stablized it'll be rev'd to version 6.0 to 
indicate full support for OpenGL 1.5 (following Mesa's established 
numbering scheme).

Here's what's new:

New features:
- reorganized directory tree
- GL_ARB_vertex/fragment_program extensions (Michal Krol & Karl Rasche)
- GL_ATI_texture_env_combine3 extension (Ian Romanick)
- GL_SGI_texture_color_table extension (Eric Plante)
- GL_NV_fragment_program extension
- GL_NV_light_max_exponent extension
- GL_EXT_texture_rectangle (identical to GL_NV_texture_rectangle)
- GL_ARB_occlusion_query extension
- GL_ARB_point_sprite extension
- GL_ARB_texture_non_power_of_two extension
- GL_IBM_multimode_draw_arrays extension
- GL_EXT_texture_mirror_clamp extension (Ian Romanick)
- GL_ARB_vertex_buffer_object extension
- new X86 feature detection code (Petr Sebor)
- less memory used for display lists and vertex buffers
- demo of per-pixel lighting with a fragment program (demos/fplight.c)
- new version (18) of glext.h header
- new spriteblast.c demo of GL_ARB_point_sprite
- faster glDrawPixels in X11 driver in some cases (see RELNOTES-5.1)
- faster glCopyPixels in X11 driver in some cases (see RELNOTES-5.1)

Bug fixes:
- really enable OpenGL 1.4 features in DOS driver.
- fixed issues in glDrawPixels and glCopyPixels for very wide images
- glPixelMapf/ui/usv()'s size parameter is GLsizei, not GLint
- fixed some texgen bugs reported by Daniel Borca
- fixed wglMakeCurrent(NULL, NULL) bug (#835861)
- fixed glTexSubImage3D z-offset bug (Cedric Gautier)
- fixed RGBA blend enable bug (Ville Syrjala)
- glAccum is supposed to be a no-op in selection/feedback mode
- fixed texgen bug #597589 (John Popplewell)

Changes:
- dropped API trace feature (src/Trace/)
- documentation overhaul.  merged with website content.  more html.
- glxgears.c demo updated to use GLX swap rate extensions
- glTexImage1/2/3D now allows width/height/depth = 0
- disable SPARC asm code on Linux (bug 852204)
