* acts as a safe-guard against uninterrupted infinite loops
or other operations that are costly to undo in interactive mode.
If we're out of memory, it is usually too late to react properly.
This implementation tries to avoid OOMs due to SciTECO behaviour.
We cannot fully exclude the chance of an OOM error.
* The undo stack size is only approximated using the
UndoToken::get_size() method.
Other ways to measure the exact amount of allocated heap
(including size fields in every heap object or using sbrk(0) and
similar) are either costly in terms of memory or platform-specific.
This implementation does not need any additional memory per heap
object or undo token but exploits the fact that undo tokens
are virtual already. The size of an undo token is determined
at compile time.
* Default memory limit of 500mb should be OK for most people.
* The current limit can be queried with "2EJ" and set with <x>,2EJ.
This also works interactively (a bit tricky!)
* Limiting can be disabled. In this case, undo token processing
is a bit faster.
* closes #3

* also did some whitespace cleanup in SciTECO now that tabs are
displayed properly

minor change that fixes Doxygen-generated documentation

normally, since SciTECO is not a library, this is not strictly
necessary since every library should use proper name prefixes
or namespaces for all global declarations to avoid name clashes.
However
* you cannot always rely on that
* Scintilla does violate the practice of using prefixes or namespaces.
The public APIs are OK, but it does define global functions/methods,
e.g. for "Document" that clashed with SciTECO's "TECODocument" class at
link-time.
Scintilla can put its definitions in a namespace, but this feature
cannot be easily enabled without patching Scintilla.
* a "SciTECO" namespace will be necessary if "SciTECO" is ever to be
turned into a library. Even if this library will have only a C-linkage
API, it must ensure it doesn't clutter the global namespace.
So the old "TECODocument" class was renamed back to "Document"
(SciTECO::Document).

* specifications resulted in runtime errors (unexpected exception) when bad_alloc ocurred
* specs should be used scarcely: only when the errors that may be thrown are all known
and for documentary purposes
