New output control code ready for HEAD

Hello Rasmus, helly list,

i can only agree to this. People do not care unless they are affected. I
am quite sure noone ever had a peep into this patch of which the first
version are out since weeks. The idea is generally good and making the ob
facility maintainable again is imo worth a bit of a hickup in development.
For PHP 6 we still have plenty of time anyway. So i am sure Mike can fixy
all the issues. So my advise is to specify a commit date, say tuesday or
wednesday next week and commit if no real aregument against is brought up by
now. How about that?

best regards
marcus

p.s.: to list, is this now a discussion? or do we need specific people to
join?

Like I said on irc, I think getting this into HEAD is the only way for
us to have any chance of figuring out what might be affected by it.

Hi,

After receiving some positive words to go ahead on IRC, I finished
porting the output control implementation to HEAD.

If there are no further objections, I'm going to commit soonish, so it
can be tested.

Todo:

• Functions which accepted a plain char* in the simpler older
  world now require a zval*, I'm not sure if this is the best way.
• Improve existing output handlers to benefit from the new
  implementation.
