Update the Kconfig help texts of both stacks to encourage a general move
from the older to the newer drivers. However, do not label ieee1394 as
"Obsolete" yet, as the newer drivers have not been deployed as default
stack in the majority of Linux distributions yet, and those who start
doing so now may still want to install the old drivers as fallback for
unforeseen issues.
Since Linux 2.6.32, FireWire audio devices can be driven by the newer
firewire driver stack too, hence remove an outdated comment about audio
devices. Also remove comments about library versions since the 2nd
generation of libraw1394 and libdc1394 is now in common use; details on
library versions can be read at the wiki link from the help texts.

The new stack is now recommended over the old one if used for industrial
video (IIDC/DCAM) or for storage devices (SBP-2) due to better
performance, improved compatibility, added features, and security. It
should also be functionally on par with and is more secure than the old
ieee1394 stack in the use case of consumer video devices.
IP-over-1394 support for the new stack is currently emerging, and a
backend of the firedtv DVB driver to the new stack should be available
soon.
The one remaining area where the old stack is still required are audio
devices, as the new stack is not yet able to support the FFADO FireWire
audio framework.

The driver is now called firewire-net. It might implement the transport
of other networking protocols in the future, notably IPv6 per RFC 3146.

Emphasize the recommendation to build only one stack.
Trim the prompts to better fit into short attention spans.

This adds debug printks for asynchronous transmission and reception and
for self ID reception. They can be enabled at module load time, and at
runtime via /sys/module/firewire_ohci/parameters/debug.

Also added: Logging of interrupt event codes and of cancelled AT
packets.
The code now depends on a Kconfig variable. This makes it easier to
build firewire-ohci without the feature or to make it an option in the
future. The variable is currently hidden and always on.
This feature inflates firewire-ohci.ko by 7 kB = 27% on x86-64 and by
4 kB = 23% on i686.

Remove some less necessary information, point out that video1394 and
dv1394 should be blacklisted along with ohci1394.

Alas that won't work so good, because nobody reads help texts.
I thought about adding some crude multiple choice selection (build the
old stack, build the new stack, build both stacks). It's possible, but
it would introduce awkward dummy config variables.

Of course everybody immediately associates "fw-" with FireWire, not
firmware or firewall or whatever. But "firewire-" has a nice ring to
it too.

With the CRC ITU-T implementation available in lib/ we can use that instead.
This also fixes a bug in the topology map crc computation.
