Having spent the last dev cycle looking at how we could specialize the
compositors for various backends, we once again look for the
commonalities in order to reduce the duplication. In part this is
motivated by the idea that spans is a good interface for both the
existent GL backend and pixman, and so they deserve a dedicated
compositor. xcb/xlib target an identical rendering system and so they
should be using the same compositor, and it should be possible to run
that same compositor locally against pixman to generate reference tests.

P.S. This brings massive upheaval (read breakage) I've tried delaying in
order to fix as many things as possible but now this one patch does far,
far, far too much. Apologies in advance for breaking your favourite
backend, but trust me in that the end result will be much better. :)
The cairo-missing library provides the functions which are needed in
order to correctly compile cairo (or its utilities) and which were not
found during configuration.
Fixes the build on MacOS X Lion, which failed because of collisons
between the cairo internal getline and strndup and those in libc:
cairo-analyse-trace.c:282: error: static declaration of ‘getline’ follows non-static declaration
/usr/include/stdio.h:449: error: previous declaration of ‘getline’ was here
cairo-analyse-trace.c:307: error: static declaration of ‘strndup’ follows non-static declaration

By ensuring that tests take longer than a couple of seconds we eliminate
systematic errors in our measurements. However, we also effectively
eliminate the synchronisation overhead. To compensate, we attempt to
estimate the overhead by reporting the difference between a single
instance and the minimum averaged instance.
Generate a cairo-perf-diff graph for a series of commits in order to be
able to identify significant commits. Still very crude, but minimally
functional.
