* Implement ck_pr_dec_is_zero family of functions
* include/ck_pr.h: add ck_pr_{dec,inc}_is_zero and implement ck_pr_{dec,inc}_zero in terms of the new functions. Convert the architecture-specific implementations of ck_pr_foo_zero for x86 and x86-64 to ck_pr_foo_is_zero.
* regressions/ck_pr/validate: add smoke tests for ck_pr_dec_{,is_}zero and ck_pr_inc_{,is_}zero
* doc: document ck_pr_inc_is_zero
This primarily involved changing the configure script and adding
several utility functions to regressions/common.h for unit testing.

build:
- configure step will generate relevant CFLAGS.
- build profiles are for convenience (developers can use themu
for cross-compilation).
regressions:
- Renamed ck_barrier unit tests to work-around behavior
of Solaris linker.
- Adopted use of a PTHREAD_CFLAGS variable.
ck_cc:
- Added internal CK_CC_IMM macro for compilers that are
verbose against impossible inline constraints (or limited
optimizers).
ck_pr/x86*:
- Adopted CK_CC_IMM macro.
- Dropped redundant constraints.
