Update documentation
Change TRICK_LIB_BUILD_TYPE to TRICKIFY_BUILD_TYPE
Remove support for linking in arbitrary objects
Conform logging to existing pattern
Added a clock reference that to the FrameLog class that defaults
to the GetTimeOfDay clock. This clock has fast access and is
non intrusive to real-time operations using a different clock.
Added a function to set the clock to something else if desired.
Created a new message class that will copy incoming messages to a
buffer area. The buffer area is pre allocated during simulation
initialization. On a separate thread the buffer area is written
to std::cout.
Added a new environment variable TRICK_ICG_IGNORE_TYPES. Class/struct/enum
types found in this semicolon delimited list will not have attributes written
out.
Added std::array as an STL type Trick recognizes. We can now create io code
that can save and restore std::arrays like std::vectors and other similar
types. Like other STL types, an std::array cannot be logged or viewed in
trick-tv.
Reverts the important parts of c909669. Trying to include another
project's build dependencies as part of a sim build doesn't work that
well.

PIPESTATUS is only available in bash. For many of the systems
we use /bin/sh and /bin/bash are the same, but noooo, not on
Ubuntu where it is linked to dash. I set SHELL := /bin/bash
in our makefile now.
Added echos to all compile commands to append to MAKE_out. tee'd
the output of the compile command so that it will go to both the MAKE_out
file and the screen.
Like gcc, swig supports all those -M options. Use them to automatically
manage *_py.cpp dependencies.
Add dependency generation to trickify.mk as well.
CURDIR is used to produce absolute paths in S_source.d, which allows it
to be included from external makefiles. It is specifically intended to
be included from a Trickified project's user-facing makefile. That is,
the one the user is intended to include in a sim's S_overrides.mk. This
allows the project to automatically build their Trickified object as
part of a simulation build, but only when necessary as specified by the
dependencies.

Trick uses dlsym to dynamically load symbols at run time. At link time,
it cannot be known which symbols will be needed. When presented with a
library, the linker will only link in symbols that are known to be
needed. Therefore, the use of -whole-archive (Linux) or -force_load
(Mac) is necessary when linking a Trickified library into a sim.
We can simplify this by partially linking into an object instead of
creating a library. The linker will link all symbols in an object
regardless of whether or not they are known to be needed.

Moved makefile assignment of S_MAIN out of MAkefile.common to simulation
makefile. The definition in Makefile.common was causing trouble for
autotesting because it changes TRICK_HOST_CPU.
A different approach. Instead of trying to limit the number of times
S_overrides.mk is included, combine the makefiles so only one
call to make is made.
We've agreed that the long-term solution is to refactor the makefiles so
we don't use recursive make. Until then, continue double including
S_overrides.mk so that the $(S_MAIN) target is available in
S_overrides.mk. Resolve#360 by having Trickified libraries use
target-specific variables (ironically, on $(S_MAIN)) to avoid
duplication of the -whole-archive option.
Like other TRICK_SYSTEM variables, users should not modify this.
This renders TRICK_LDFLAGS and TRICK_USER_LINK_LIBS redundant. While we
would like to eventually remove TRICK_USER_LINK_LIBS, it's not likely to
ever actually happen.
