Squashed commit of the sb-vbs branch.

Includes the SD-VBS benchmarks modified to:
- Use libextra to loop as realtime jobs
- Preallocate memory before starting their main computation
- Accept input via stdin instead of via argc

Does not include the SD-VBS matlab code.

Fixes libextra execution in LITMUS^RT.

+We have modified MSER in the following ways:
+
+- we generated a standalone C version from the mser.mex.c source.
+- we augmented the code in order to support collection of benchmarking data (matlab and C)
+- we create benchmark inputs for the code (matlab and C)
+- we modified the code to use our own standardized library for common functions (matlab and C)
+
+Our modifications are available under the same license as above, since UCSD is also
+part of the University of California.
