Road to Emscripten 2.0

Lots and lots of work has been taking place on emscripten (the LLVM-to-JS compiler). I haven't been breaking things out into smaller releases, instead, there will be a 2.0 release in the near future (last release was 1.5). The remaining issues before that are:

• Fix any remaining regressions in the llvm-svn branch compared to the master branch, and merge llvm-svn to mastert. The llvm-svn branch uses LLVM's svn, which will soon become 3.0. Some of the code changes in LLVM have hurt our generated code, however most of the issues are now fixed. The latest update is a fix for exception handling which has led to a 5% smaller ammo.js build (compared to 2.9), with no speed decrease :)
• Bundle headers with emscripten. As more people have begun to use emscripten, we have been seeing more issues with platform-specific problems, almost all due to using different system headers (for example, issues #82 and #85 on github). Bundling working headers will fix that, in a similar way as to how SDKs and NDKs typically bundle a complete build environment. Currently the plan is to use the newlib headers for libc and start from there.

As mentioned in a previous blog post, emscripten 2.0 will require LLVM 3.0, and will no longer officially support the deprecated llvm-gcc compiler (it might still work though). This is a significant change which may affect projects using emscripten, please let me know if you are aware of any issues there.

Note also that I will be merging llvm-svn to master before LLVM 3.0 goes stable. That means that you will need to build LLVM from source at that time since there won't be LLVM binaries. Of course, you will still be able to use a previous revision of emscripten, that works with LLVM 2.9, with no issues.
