o separate information for reading and writing, because e.g. in a
try-block, only the writes to local variables and parameters are
volatile (they have to be committed immediately in case the next
instruction causes an exception)
o for now, only references to absolute memory addresses are marked
as volatile
o the volatily information is (should be) properly maintained throughout
all code generators for all archictures with this patch
o no optimizers or other compiler infrastructure uses the volatility
information yet
o this functionality is not (yet) exposed at the language level, it
is only for internal code generator use right now

to free up space for more ait_* types in taitype (can't have
more than 32 because they have to fit in a small set)
o factored out writing of floating point numbers as an array of
byte in the external assemblers

alignment for each memory reference (mantis #12137, and
test/packages/fcl-registry/tregistry1.pp on sparc). This also
enables better code generation for packed records in many cases.
o several changes were made to the compiler to minimise the chances
of accidentally forgetting to set the alignment of memory references
in the future:
- reference_reset*() now has an extra alignment parameter
- location_reset() can now only be used for non LOC_(C)REFERENCE,
use location_reset_ref() for those (split the tloc enum so the
compiler can catch errors using range checking)
git-svn-id: trunk@12719 -
* symtables based on TFPHashObjectList and TFPObjectList
* rename torddef.typ to torddef.ordtype
* rename tfloatdef.typ to tfloatdef.floattype
* rename tdef.deftype to tdef.typ
* remove obsolete browser code, browcol is kept so the ide
can still be compiled
