no r=, but it's very similar to previous approved changes. I want to get it in with other xpidl modifications, as everybody's tree needs to be rebuilt anyway.
Fix 8833 - Allow typedefs in const declarations.
Fix several warnings.
Remove a huge chunk of #if 0 code in in xpidl_typelib.c (that had accumulated subsequent changes!)
- Add a compile-time check requiring non-scriptable (because they're native) attributes to be marked [noscript] within [scriptable] interfaces. This mirrors an existing check for methods, and may save some hair-pulling for script authors. Partial fix to 11454.
- Emit a sample implementation (#ifdef 0) into the generated .h file that component authors can copy and use as the start of their implementation. Code courtesy jband.

* fix 20833 - generate numbers of appropriate form in header output mode for short, long, signed or unsigned IDL consts. Thanks to bratell@lysator.liu.se for finding this and confirming the fix.
* fix 11199, remove .h output file on failure - partially generated files caused trouble, as they had the proper timestamp to fool 'make' next time around. Punted on mac.
* Restore Mac hack to fix \r to \n, requested by Beard.
* Make 'const decl must be short or long' warning into error for typelib mode. This mirrors an existing error in header mode.
* Fix up various aspects of xpidl, including:
- Move shared functions from xpidl_idl.c and xpidl.c 'main' module to new xpidl_util.c.
- Recast nodehandler-table-per-backend as 'backend' struct, including broken-out prolog and epilog functions. Replaces overloaded IDLN_NONE node handler that did prolog code on non-null tree, epilog on null. Move backends to new API.
- Rename a few structs more logically.
- Add a new list to track files included from the base .idl file, for generated #includes in output header file. This replaces using the 'already-included' hashtable for this purpose, and lets us generate just the minimal set of #includes, in the order they occured in the .h file.
- Various fixes to quiet xpidl warnings.
- Change main() to only accept one input file from the command line, because the basename code assumes this, and multiple files aren't needed by our make system.
