Update Information:

- Added the python PMAPI bindings and an initial python client
  in pmcollectl.  Separate, new package exists for python libs
  for those platforms that split out packages (rpm, deb).
- Added a pcp-testsuite package for those platforms that might
  want this (rpm, deb again, mainly)
- Re-introduced the pcp/qa subdirectory in pcp and deprecated
  the external pcpqa git tree.
- Fix potential buffer overflow in pmlogger host name handling.
- Reworked the configure --prefix handling to be more like the
  rest of the open source world.
- Ensure the __pmDecodeText ident parameter is always set
  Resolves Red Hat bugzilla bug #841306.
