a4dd004076 demo/insn: report start and end time as unsigned values
Report the seconds and microseconds values from the INSN_GTOD
instructions as unsigned values to postpone the Y2038 problem to a Y2106
problem.  Be a bit more careful with the conversion to a signed
difference.  We wouldn't normally expect time to go backwards, but it is
possible if the system time is set to to an older time between the
instructions.

Also, in the description of INSN_GTOD in the Comedilib manual,
explicitly mention that the seconds and microseconds values are
unsigned.

df4d8963de doc/other.xml, reference.xml: Slowly varying inputs and comedi triggers
Mention that the stuff that relies on the COMEDI_TRIG ioctl, including
the slowly varying input (comedi_sv_...) functions no longer work with
current versions of the Comedi kernel layer.

683e685c9f doc/reference.xml: Removed some comedilib internals.
Removed subdevice_struct as it is internal to comedilib.  Removed
struct comedi_t_struct, leaving only the comedi_t typedef as
applications only see it as a pointer to an opaque, incomplete type.

0d8c6e9661 Comedilib.pdf can now be generated with
dblatex -t pdf ./comedilib.xml

There were two major issues in the comedilb.xml:
1) there were too many nested sections so that
   latex ran out of sub-sub-sub-sub-sections.
2) A section needs a title and can no longer
   exist without one. The first line
   of the textfiles contains now the title
   and will be inserted by mkref into the xml file.

todo: switch from xmlto to dblatex for the pdf generation
and re-enable it in the makefile.

a61c28c696 doc/reference.xml: Added section for comedi_polynomial_t.
The tutorial.xml contained links to a missing section for the
comedi_polynomial_t type, so I added one.
