And that completes my sweep through commits for things that might be
worth noting in the release notes. These remain raw notes. I'll be
re-writing them into nice prose first thing tomorrow, with help from
others. A couple of notes for any reading the commits:

If you don't see something that should be mentioned, feel free to add
a note (or even a nicely written section) about it! I haven't really
done the static analyzer justice here as I don't really know what the
significant changes are other than mile-high stuff like watching it grow
C++ support and a more robust CFG. I also worry I've missed important
stuff in the Objective-C world.

If you see something that isn't worth mentioning, just delete it. I know
there are several things like this. I plan to prune the list down as
I flesh things out.

If you're name or email is on a bullet, I'll likely be sending you an
email asking for any input on that subject. For many of these I can fill
in something generic, and I'll just want you to give it a once-over.
However, if you have time, feel free to just write the blurb yourself
and drop it in, or drop it in an email to me.

Finally, *WOW* has a lot happened in Clang... I shouldn't have dreaded
(and put off) this so much, it was kind of awesome to go back and watch
the evolution. Anyways, these should be in a reasonable draft state
early tomorrow.
