Directory reorg: move code into redo/, generate binaries in bin/.

It's time to start preparing for a version of redo that doesn't work
unless we build it first (because it will rely on C modules, and
eventually be rewritten in C altogether).

To get rolling, remove the old-style symlinks to the main programs, and
rename those programs from redo-*.py to redo/cmd_*.py.  We'll also move
all library functions into the redo/ dir, which is a more python-style
naming convention.

Previously, install.do was generating wrappers for installing in
/usr/bin, which extend sys.path and then import+run the right file.
This made "installed" redo work quite differently from running redo
inside its source tree.  Instead, let's always generate the wrappers in
bin/, and not make anything executable except those wrappers.

Since we're generating wrappers anyway, let's actually auto-detect the
right version of python for the running system; distros can't seem to
agree on what to call their python2 binaries (sigh). We'll fill in the
right #! shebang lines.  Since we're doing that, we can stop using
/usr/bin/env, which will a) make things slightly faster, and b) let us
use "python -S", which tells python not to load a bunch of extra crap
we're not using, thus improving startup times.

Annoyingly, we now have to build redo using minimal/do, then run the
tests using bin/redo.  To make this less annoying, we add a toplevel
./do script that knows the right steps, and a Makefile (whee!) for
people who are used to typing 'make' and 'make test' and 'make clean'.

@ -11,6 +11,9 @@ This version, sometimes called apenwarr/redo, is probably the most advanced
one, including support for parallel builds, improved logging, and helpful
debugging features.
To build and test redo, run `./do -j10 test`. To install it, run
`DESTDIR=/tmp/testinstall PREFIX=/usr/local ./do -j10 install`.
