2016-09-14Add scripts to remove/replace 'static' from functions.Robin Watts
Getting a backtrace out with missing functions makes the backtrace much less useful. Some backtrace routines (such as that used by Memento on Android) are incapable of resolving static functions. We therefore provide 2 scripts (scripts/destatic.sh and scripts/restatic.sh) that respectively remove and replace the 'static' from function definitions. The scripts do not affect "static inline" or "static const" definitions, and they are are restricted to working in the source directory (excluding source/tools), thirdparty/mujs and the platform/{java,android} directories. The transformed source should NOT be checked in. To avoid problems with clashing symbols, some functions are renamed or tweaked slightly in this patch.
