Explicitly cast to float.  Else MSVC generated
legit warnings everywhere this macro was used,
warning about possible silent precision loss.

This adds a new IFBTree type, intended for use in indices.  Still
needs NEWS, still needs docs, and there are a pile of legitimate
compiler warnings on Windows that need fixing.

Forward port from ZODB 3.2.

Collector 1581:  fspack can blow up when .fs is corrupted

Repaired three places where fspack referenced an undefined global while
*trying* to raise CorruptedError.  Added new checkCorruptionInPack()
test to verify the correct exception gets raised.

Change ConflictError constructor to stop importing app objects.

When the ConflictError constructor is passed a pickle, extract
the module and class names without loading the pickle.  A ZEO
server doesn't necessarily have the implementation code for
application classes, and when that's so the attempt to raise
ConflictError was itself dying with an ImportError.

This one doesn't exist on the 3.3 branch.

Move more get_pickle_metadata imports.

Import get_pickle_metadata from its new home.

Move get_pickle_metadata() into utils.py.

Try to make more sense of the ZODB pickle format "docs".

Try to get ring.h installed.

This spares clients from having to do it themselves repeatedly.
A dubious consequences is that Transaction.__init__ now requires a
WeakSet of synchronizer objects (or None -- so it's not a
catastrophic requirement, just irksome).

Weak sets have have pragmatic gotchas, explained in the comments
before the new WeakSet.as_weakref_list() method.  In essence, we
just took all the weak sets of connection objects and changed
everything so that a list of live objects is never materialized
anymore.  Also added new map()-like methods so that clients don't
usually need to be aware of the weakrefs under the covers.

This can't use self._connectionMap, because it needs to
know the version associated with each connection.

that the trunk is no longer strongly related to 3.3
development (the later takes place on the 3.3 branch).

There's no longer a hard limit on # of open connections per DB.

Introduced a sane scheme for raising deprecation warnings.
Sane ==

1. The machinery ensures that a "this will be removed in ZODB 3.6"
   blurb gets attached to all deprecation warnings.

and

2. It will dead easy to find these when it's time for 3.6.

Code cleanups.

Imports normalization.

The tests here have to be run manually for now, so rename
the directory so test.py doesn't complain about it.

Merge revs 27788 and 27795 from Zope trunk.

See Collector #1350.

ghostify() and unghostify() detect one form of thread insanity
now.  In a debug build, they abort the process if it happens.
In a release build, unghostify() raises SystemError, and
ghostify() ignores it (ghostify() can't raise an exception).

Use proto 1 pickles in ZEO/zrpc/Marshaller.encode().

This rehabilitates the good part of Andreas's change; adds
news; adds comments; and adds more comments about the
sequence of undocumented cPickle gimmicks this relies on.

Merge rev 27722 from Zope trunk.

Collector #1517: History tab for ZPT does not work

FileStorage.history() was reading the user, description,
and extension fields out of the object pickle, due to
starting the read at a wrong location.

Merge rev 27712 from Zope trunk.

Restore the Connection._opened attribute, actually used by
DB.connectionDebugInfo().

Transaction.begin().

When raising DeprecationWarning, point the warning machinery at
the caller, not at Transaction.begin() itself.  As is (voice
of experience <wink>), these warnings are darned near useless to
track down code that needs to be changed on Zope trunk.  With the
change, the warnings point directly at the deprecated uses.
