Add new virtual table 'recover' to src/ and the amalgamation.

Since recover.c is in somewhat active development, it is possible that
the patch below will not reliably re-create the file.

+/* Implements a virtual table "recover" which can be used to recover
+ * data from a corrupt table.  The table is walked manually, with
+ * corrupt items skipped.  Additionally, any errors while reading will
+ * be skipped.
+ *
+ * Given a table with this definition:
+ *
+ * CREATE TABLE Stuff (
+ *   name TEXT PRIMARY KEY,
+ *   value TEXT NOT NULL
+ * );
+ *
+ * to recover the data from teh table, you could do something like:
+ *
+ * -- Attach another database, the original is not trustworthy.
+ * ATTACH DATABASE '/tmp/db.db' AS rdb;
+ * -- Create a new version of the table.
+ * CREATE TABLE rdb.Stuff (
+ *   name TEXT PRIMARY KEY,
+ *   value TEXT NOT NULL
+ * );
+ * -- This will read the original table's data.
+ * CREATE VIRTUAL TABLE temp.recover_Stuff using recover(
+ *   main.Stuff,
+ *   name TEXT STRICT NOT NULL,  -- only real TEXT data allowed
+ *   value TEXT STRICT NOT NULL
+ * );
+ * -- Corruption means the UNIQUE constraint may no longer hold for
+ * -- Stuff, so either OR REPLACE or OR IGNORE must be used.
+ * INSERT OR REPLACE INTO rdb.Stuff (rowid, name, value )
+ *   SELECT rowid, name, value FROM temp.recover_Stuff;
+ * DROP TABLE temp.recover_Stuff;
+ * DETACH DATABASE rdb;
+ * -- Move db.db to replace original db in filesystem.
+ *
+ *
+ * Usage
+ *
+ * Given the goal of dealing with corruption, it would not be safe to
+ * create a recovery table in the database being recovered.  So
+ * recovery tables must be created in the temp database.  They are not
+ * appropriate to persist, in any case.  [As a bonus, sqlite_master
+ * tables can be recovered.  Perhaps more cute than useful, though.]
+ *
+ * The parameters are a specifier for the table to read, and a column
+ * definition for each bit of data stored in that table.  The named
+ * table must be convertable to a root page number by reading the
+ * sqlite_master table.  Bare table names are assumed to be in
+ * database 0 ("main"), other databases can be specified in db.table
+ * fashion.
+ *
+ * Column definitions are similar to BUT NOT THE SAME AS those
+ * provided to CREATE statements:
+ *  column-def: column-name [type-name [STRICT] [NOT NULL]]
+ *  type-name: (ANY|ROWID|INTEGER|FLOAT|NUMERIC|TEXT|BLOB)
+ *
+ * Only those exact type names are accepted, there is no type
+ * intuition.  The only constraints accepted are STRICT (see below)
+ * and NOT NULL.  Anything unexpected will cause the create to fail.
+ *
+ * ANY is a convenience to indicate that manifest typing is desired.
+ * It is equivalent to not specifying a type at all.  The results for
+ * such columns will have the type of the data's storage.  The exposed
+ * schema will contain no type for that column.
+ *
+ * ROWID is used for columns representing aliases to the rowid
+ * (INTEGER PRIMARY KEY, with or without AUTOINCREMENT), to make the
+ * concept explicit.  Such columns are actually stored as NULL, so
+ * they cannot be simply ignored.  The exposed schema will be INTEGER
+ * for that column.
+ *
+ * NOT NULL causes rows with a NULL in that column to be skipped.  It
+ * also adds NOT NULL to the column in the exposed schema.  If the
+ * table has ever had columns added using ALTER TABLE, then those
+ * columns implicitly contain NULL for rows which have not been
+ * updated.  [Workaround using COALESCE() in your SELECT statement.]
+ *
+ * The created table is read-only, with no indices.  Any SELECT will
+ * be a full-table scan, returning each valid row read from the
+ * storage of the backing table.  The rowid will be the rowid of the
+ * row from the backing table.  "Valid" means:
+ * - The cell metadata for the row is well-formed.  Mainly this means that
+ *   the cell header info describes a payload of the size indicated by
+ *   the cell's payload size.
+ * - The cell does not run off the page.
+ * - The cell does not overlap any other cell on the page.
+ * - The cell contains doesn't contain too many columns.
+ * - The types of the serialized data match the indicated types (see below).
+ *
+ *
+ * Type affinity versus type storage.
+ *
+ * http://www.sqlite.org/datatype3.html describes SQLite's type
+ * affinity system.  The system provides for automated coercion of
+ * types in certain cases, transparently enough that many developers
+ * do not realize that it is happening.  Importantly, it implies that
+ * the raw data stored in the database may not have the obvious type.
+ *
+ * Differences between the stored data types and the expected data
+ * types may be a signal of corruption.  This module makes some
+ * allowances for automatic coercion.  It is important to be concious
+ * of the difference between the schema exposed by the module, and the
+ * data types read from storage.  The following table describes how
+ * the module interprets things:
+ *
+ * type     schema   data                     STRICT
+ * ----     ------   ----                     ------
+ * ANY      <none>   any                      any
+ * ROWID    INTEGER  n/a                      n/a
+ * INTEGER  INTEGER  integer                  integer
+ * FLOAT    FLOAT    integer or float         float
+ * NUMERIC  NUMERIC  integer, float, or text  integer or float
+ * TEXT     TEXT     text or blob             text
+ * BLOB     BLOB     blob                     blob
+ *
+ * type is the type provided to the recover module, schema is the
+ * schema exposed by the module, data is the acceptable types of data
+ * decoded from storage, and STRICT is a modification of that.
+ *
+ * A very loose recovery system might use ANY for all columns, then
+ * use the appropriate sqlite3_column_*() calls to coerce to expected
+ * types.  This doesn't provide much protection if a page from a
+ * different table with the same column count is linked into an
+ * inappropriate btree.
+ *
+ * A very tight recovery system might use STRICT to enforce typing on
+ * all columns, preferring to skip rows which are valid at the storage
+ * level but don't contain the right types.  Note that FLOAT STRICT is
+ * almost certainly not appropriate, since integral values are
+ * transparently stored as integers, when that is more efficient.
+ *
+ * Another option is to use ANY for all columns and inspect each
+ * result manually (using sqlite3_column_*).  This should only be
+ * necessary in cases where developers have used manifest typing (test
+ * to make sure before you decide that you aren't using manifest
+ * typing!).
+ *
+ *
+ * Caveats
+ *
+ * Leaf pages not referenced by interior nodes will not be found.
+ *
+ * Leaf pages referenced from interior nodes of other tables will not
+ * be resolved.
+ *
+ * Rows referencing invalid overflow pages will be skipped.
+ *
+ * SQlite rows have a header which describes how to interpret the rest
+ * of the payload.  The header can be valid in cases where the rest of
+ * the record is actually corrupt (in the sense that the data is not
+ * the intended data).  This can especially happen WRT overflow pages,
+ * as lack of atomic updates between pages is the primary form of
+ * corruption I have seen in the wild.
+ */
+/* The implementation is via a series of cursors.  The cursor
+ * implementations follow the pattern:
+ *
+ * // Creates the cursor using various initialization info.
+ * int cursorCreate(...);
+ *
+ * // Returns 1 if there is no more data, 0 otherwise.
+ * int cursorEOF(Cursor *pCursor);
+ *
+ * // Various accessors can be used if not at EOF.
+ *
+ * // Move to the next item.
+ * int cursorNext(Cursor *pCursor);
+ *
+ * // Destroy the memory associated with the cursor.
+ * void cursorDestroy(Cursor *pCursor);
+ *
+ * References in the following are to sections at
+ * http://www.sqlite.org/fileformat2.html .
+ *
+ * RecoverLeafCursor iterates the records in a leaf table node
+ * described in section 1.5 "B-tree Pages".  When the node is
+ * exhausted, an interior cursor is used to get the next leaf node,
+ * and iteration continues there.
+ *
+ * RecoverInteriorCursor iterates the child pages in an interior table
+ * node described in section 1.5 "B-tree Pages".  When the node is
+ * exhausted, a parent interior cursor is used to get the next
+ * interior node at the same level, and iteration continues there.
+ *
+ * Together these record the path from the leaf level to the root of
+ * the tree.  Iteration happens from the leaves rather than the root
+ * both for efficiency and putting the special case at the front of
+ * the list is easier to implement.
+ *
+ * RecoverCursor uses a RecoverLeafCursor to iterate the rows of a
+ * table, returning results via the SQLite virtual table interface.
