\o/ Fusil 1.0 \o/

Fusil 1.0 final
---------------

Visiable changes:

 * Create fusil-zzuf fuzzer (use the zzuf library)
 * Create fusil-vlc fuzzer (VLC media player)
 * For each session, generate a Python script (replay.py) to replay the
   session. The script can run the target in gdb, valgrind or gdb.py
   (python-ptrace debugger), with many options (--user, --limit, etc.)
 * Create --force-unsafe option, like --unsafe with without the confirmation
 * CreateProcess is now a probe (witch a score): if the debugger catchs a
   fatal signal, the session stops
 * Always use a null device as stdin for child processes to avoid blocking the
   fuzzer if the process reads stdin (eg. call getchar())
 * Write the created process identifier in the logs

Developer:

 * Create EnvVarIntegerRange: environment variable with an integer value
   in a fixed range
 * Changes to get a minimal Windows support: disable "change user/group"
   feature on Windows; remove log file before removing the project directory;
   use ":NUL" instead of /dev/null for null input/output
 * On setupProject() error, make sure that the project is cleaned
 * Close stdout files (input and output) at process exit (fix needed
   by Windows)
 * Rename long2raw() to uint2bytes(), and bytes2long() to bytes2uint()
 * Normalize score that make sure that a probe score is in range [-1; +1]
   and so that score*weight is in range[-weight; +weight]
 * CodeC: remove method lines(), writeCode() is renamed writeIntoFile(),
   use unicode strings (instead of byte strings)
 * Remove StdoutFile class, code merged in CreateProcess


python-ptrace 0.5 (2008-09-13)
------------------------------

Visible changes:

 * Write an example (the most simple debugger) and begin to document the code
 * gdb.py: create "dbginfo" command
 * Parse socket syscalls on FreeBSD
 * On invalid memory access (SIGSEGV), eval the dereference expression to get
   the fault address on OS without siginfo (eg. FreeBSD)
 * Fixes to get minimal Windows support: fix imports, fix locateProgram()

Other changes:

 * Break the API:
   - Rename PtraceDebugger.traceSysgood() to PtraceDebugger.enableSysgood()
   - Rename PtraceDebugger.trace_sysgood to PtraceDebugger.use_sysgood
   - Remove PtraceProcess.readCode()
 * Create createChild() function which close all files except stdin,
   stdout and stderr
 * On FreeBSD, on process exit recalls waitpid(pid) to avoid zombi process
