Rename some predicates to avoid ambiguity.
Factor out common code.
If some versions of a field of a structure have names in a predicate
(by being stored in a named variable), then give all *other* versions
of that field in that structure names in that predicate as well.
If a field of a structure is used more than once in a predicate,
then again, store it in a named variable.
Reorder predicate arguments to put state variables last.
Use io.format instead of sequences of calls to io.write_string.
In declarative_user.m, note a probable bug (in a position where
it is probably rarely stumbled upon).
In listing.m, use a consistent naming scheme to differentiate
between Mercury streams and their C counterparts.
Replace if-then-else chains with switches where possible.
browser/name_mangle.m:
Note bit rot.
browser/browse.m:
Conform to the changes above.
library/io.m:
Improve predicate and variable names.

Improve comments.
Discussion of these changes can be found on the Mercury developers
mailing list archives from June 2018.
COPYING.LIB:
Add a special linking exception to the LGPL.
*:
Update references to COPYING.LIB.
Clean up some minor errors that have accumulated in copyright
messages.

Fix inconsistencies between (a) the order in which functions and predicates
are declared, and (b) the order in which they are defined.
In most modules, either the order of the declarations or the order
of the definitions made sense, and I changed the other to match.
In some modules, neither made sense, so I changed *both* to an order
that *does* make sense (i.e. it has related predicates together).
In some places, put dividers between groups of related
functions/predicates, to make the groups themselves more visible.
In some places, fix comments or programming style.
browser/MDB_FLAGS.in:
Since all the modules in this directory are now free from any warnings
generated by --warn-inconsistent-pred-order-clauses, specify that option
by default in this directory to keep it that way.

browser/*.m:
Replace __ with . as the module qualifier everywhere in all the modules
of the browser directory. Convert the currently tab-indented modules
to four-space indentation. Delete some unnecessary module
qualifications. Change some type names and function symbols to avoid
ambiguities. Replace a bunch of uses of DCGs with state variable
notation.

Fix link problems on murlibobo caused by my recent changes
to the way libmer_std.so and libmer_browser.so are built.
The problem was due to shared libraries being renamed
after they were built without telling the linker.
library/mer_std.m:
browser/mer_browser.m:
Empty modules used to generate the libraries with
the correct names.
library/Mmakefile:
browser/Mmakefile:
Build and install libmer_std.* and libmer_browser.*
rather than liblibrary.* and libmdb.*.
Mmake.workspace:
Mmake.common.in:
Make sure SO_LOCATIONS_DIR is in ml's environment
when building the libraries.
Fix the order of the `-l' options.
compiler/Mmakefile:
Make sure `main.o' comes before the library `.a' files
on the ml command line.
doc/Mmakefile:
Add mer_std.m to the list of files for which documentation
should not be generated.
trace/Mmakefile:
Add the grade-specific library directory to the rpath
for libmer_trace.so.
