build: add libraries to LIBADD instead of LDFLAGS

2014-07-19T21:14:03+00:00

For a number of linker flags the order of the object files and the libs
to link against matter (for example -Wl,--as-needed). Make sure that
libraries are added via the LIBADD variable instead of LDFLAGS and
therefore always come after the object files.

build: Support for unit tests using Cmockery2

2014-07-18T17:55:51+00:00

This patch will allow for developers to create unit tests for
their code.  Documentation has been added to the patch and
is available here:

doc/hacker-guide/en-US/markdown/unittest.md

Also, unit tests are run when RPM is created.

This patch is a replacement for http://review.gluster.org/#/c/7281
which removed unit test infrastucture from the repo due to multiple
conflicts.  Cmockery2 is now available in Fedora and EPEL, and soon
to be available in Debian and Ubuntu.  For all other operating
systems, please install from the source:

doc: Import Jeff Darcy's translator tutorial

2013-08-04T14:39:56+00:00

It's way better than what we have currently. It's the original text from Jeff's
blog [1][2][3][4], unedited aside from the title, so that the content can be
properly attributed.

Original-Author: Jeff Darcy 

Necessary editing will follow:
* Nicer endings/openings of the subsections, as they are no longer separate articles
* Wrap lines in terminal outputs so that they render nicely in PDF
* Remove HeksFS references
* Remove first person fear of developer wrath for manual creation of a volfile
