Description
Allow the testsuite to be run under valgrind if available, and so catch memory leaks, use of uninitialised values, etc. This requires suitable hooks adding to valgrind - Julian Seward seemed to like the idea.

Nicholas Nethercote has added a couple of hooks to the valgrind CVS version (so they should be in valgrind 1.9.6) and I've added the necessary machinery to the Xapian testsuite.

Nicholas Nethercote will hopefully add suitable hooks once some pending internal changes to valgrind are completed:
