Merge from quantifiers2-trunkmerge branch.
Adds TheoryQuantifiers and TheoryRewriteRules, QuantifiersEngine, and other infrastructure. Adds theory instantiators to many theories. Adds the UF strong solver.

+Congratulations, you now have a new theory of rewriterules !
+
+Your next steps will likely be:
+
+* to specify theory constants, types, and operators in your \`kinds' file
+* to add typing rules to theory_${dir}_type_rules.h for your operators
+ and constants
+* to write code in theory_${dir}_rewriter.h to implement a normal form
+ for your theory's terms
+* to write parser rules in src/parser/cvc/Cvc.g to support the CVC input
+ language, src/parser/smt/Smt.g to support the (deprecated) SMT-LIBv1
+ language, and src/parser/smt2/Smt2.g to support SMT-LIBv2
+* to write printer code in src/printer/*/*_printer* to support printing
+ your theory terms and types in various output languages
+
+and finally:
+
+* to implement a decision procedure for your theory by implementing
+ TheoryRewriterules::check() in theory_rewriterules.cpp. Before writing the actual
+ code, you will need :
+
+ * to determine which datastructures are context dependent and use for them
+ context dependent datastructures (context/cd*.h)
+ * to choose which work will be done at QUICK_CHECK, STANDARD or at
+ FULL_EFFORT.
+
+
+Good luck, and please contact cvc4-devel@cs.nyu.edu for assistance
+should you need it!
