Clarified documentation of symbol tables.
Clarified definition of slot numbers.
Added the http-equiv meta tag for HTML 4.01 strict compliance.
Adjusted line lengths.
Differentiated between "type slot" and "value slot" everywhere.

was released with LLVM 1.3). Alignment of fields can add severe size to
certain kinds of functions (those with lots of long format instructions) so
we decided to do away with alignment altogether in this bc version.

- Define the "opcode" data type and reference the Instruction.def file
- Clean up the definition of symtab by indicating that it is composed of
  two llists.
- Fix some broken links.

Discrepancy noted by Robert Mykland. Thanks Robert!

succinct. Added a section to Describe the notation, made the VBR
description its own section, and otherwise generally cleaned things up.

- Provided a "General Layout" section that currently covers just the block
  structure of the bytecode file.
- Wrote the section on the Global Type Pool
- Wrote the section on differences between LLVM file format versions.

Only five sections left to write!
