I had collected attribution information for the announce only, but
Damien agreed to put them in the Changes file as well.
This change also fixes minor problems with the Changes content:
- type-based disambiguation of constructors and labels was not mentioned
- the open! syntax was not mentioned
- PR#5552 was mislabeled
- PR#5758 (matching on floats) was announced despite being also
present in the 4.00.1 changes
- I moved PR#5986 (Marshal.Compat_32) from 'bug' to 'feature'
- PR#5243 was absent (ocamlbuild API documentation)

This change was recommend by daweil on the bugtracker. According to
the Bash documentation, the option -c that is already passed by
ocamlbuild should already imply --norc, but daweil reported a 30%
performance speedup with this change anyway. I'm a bit surprised, but
this cannot hurt...

(Patch by Adrien Nader!)
This makes the variable names more coherent and is in preparation for
another patch that will allow disabling ocamldoc and ocamlbuild.
This changes the interface of the configuration somewhat but I don't
think anything outside of the ocaml tree reads the Makefile.config file
that gets installed in order to see whether the debugger and camlp4 have
been built. It also changes a .mli which might be problematic but I also
believe it is safe and we have time to see if there's a bad impact.
It also adds a configure switch to skip building ocamldebug.
While at it, it fixes a PR number in the Changes file.

ocamlfind library management has been around for while and is
considered to be installed by default on any OCaml system. Therefore
it's safe to assume that the default behavior of ocamlbuild should be
to use new ocamlfind support normally enabled explicitly by
-use-ocamlfind flag. The -use-ocamlfind flag has now a status of
depreceation and instead new flag -no-ocamlfind causes ocamlbuild to
not try to use new set of parametric tags for supporting ocamlfind.

* -short-paths is activated via the "short_paths" tag
* -principal is activated via the "principal" tag
* -strict_sequence now has a "strict_sequence" tag to alias the
"strict-sequence" tag that was already there, to follow the
convention of command-line options having dashes replaced by
underscores. It's easy to mess this up since incorrect tags
are silently ignored by ocamlbuild.
Add test cases that check if principal and strict-sequence have
been passed, and tweak the test suite slightly to make it easier
to match on failing_msg output.
