have been updated also.

Utilities changes

- rename jfs utilities as follows:
    fsck.jfs -> jfs_fsck, is hard linked to fsck.jfs upon install

    jfs_tune remains the same
    logdump -> jfs_logdump
    xchklog, xchkdmp combined -> jfs_fscklog
    xpeek -> jfs_debugfs
    logredo removed, function added to jfs_fsck via
    --replay_journal_only option
- update man pages appropriately for name changes
- change jfs_fsck option -o to --omit_journal_replay
- fix log replay errors
- fix off-by-one error, minor formatting error in jfs_fsck
- keep jfs_fsck from complaining during specific tree restructuring
- fix jfs_debugfs to recognize all inode types
- code cleanup

File System changes

- Fix off-by-one error when symbolic link length == 256 (bug 1513)
- jfs_clear_inode should skip bad inodes instead of choking on them
  (bug 1445)
