ralloc_adopt() reparents all children from one context to another.
Conceptually, ralloc_adopt(new_ctx, old_ctx) behaves like this
pseudocode:
foreach child of old_ctx:
ralloc_steal(new_ctx, child)
However, ralloc provides no way to iterate over a memory context's
children, and ralloc_adopt does this task more efficiently anyway.
One potential use of this is to implement a memory-sweeper pass: first,
steal all of a context's memory to a temporary context. Then, walk over
anything that should be kept, and ralloc_steal it back to the original
context. Finally, free the temporary context. This works when the
context is something that can't be freed (i.e. an important structure).

This gathers macros that have been included across components into util so
that the include chain can be more vertical. In particular, this makes
util stand on its own without any dependence whatsoever on the rest of
mesa.

For a long time, we've wanted a place to put utility code which isn't
directly tied to Mesa or Gallium internals. This patch creates a new
src/util directory for exactly that purpose, and builds the contents as
libmesautil.la.
ralloc seemed like a good first candidate. These days, it's directly
used by mesa/main, i965, i915, and r300g, so keeping it in src/glsl
didn't make much sense.
