Bumped version to 4.4.5; Updated ChangeLog.
network plugin: A fix for the buffer problem for version 4.4.
This patch fixes the same problem as 6605ff1a, the insufficient copying of
values to the `type' buffer.
Thanks again to Bruno Prémont for reporting and debugging this :)
Resolves: #37

Do not use *printf() to report errors / debugging messages.
The only exception to that is during configuration (which is done before
daemonization) to let the user know about problems immediately.

collectd.conf(5): Updated the section about the "mysql" plugin.
* Do not talk about what RRD files things end up in - there is more than
"rrdtool" by now.
* Updated the section number of the "Server Status Variables" in the MySQL
reference manual.
* Mention that the MySQL user does not need any special privileges.

collectd: Abort with an appropriate status in exit_usage().
In case of an error, the exit status code now equals 1.

collectd: Abort if any non-options are left over after command-line parsing.
This happens if any arguments not starting with a dash are passed to collectd.
Any of those are invalid, so let the user know about that.
Thanks to Kris (gruntruk) for (unknowingly) pointing that out ;-)

collectd.conf.in: Fixed a wrong type used in the "tail" example.
collectd.conf.pod: Consistently use spaces instead of tabs in examples.
unixsock plugin: Make sure the initialization function is run only once.
If called multiple times, the global `sock_fd' variable will be re-set,
breaking the plugin.

configure.in: Some improvements for Solaris, expecially the swap plugin.
If Solaris is detected, "-D_POSIX_PTHREAD_SEMANTICS" will be added to
CPPFLAGS automatically now.
If sys/swap.h is not found, print a message suggesting to build a 64bit
binary. (sys/swap.h cannot be included when a 32bit binary is being built,
but it's most likely present under Solaris.)
Enable the swap plugin only if sys/swap.h has been found (when under

Up to now, only mysql/mysql.h has been checked for. However, mysql_config
--cflags usually adds the complete path to mysql.h to the include flags. In
most setups, mysql/mysql.h can be found in the search path as well (usually
the header is available in something like /usr/include/mysql/mysql.h) so this
issue has not been found so far. However, if that's not the case, the build
will fail.

Because the `poison' pragma complains about macros (which are then never
used), this feature does more harm than good in everyday use. So we'll
only activate it when building in debug mode, so hopefully authors of
new plugins will use this.

This is used by the "email" plugin. Apparently, it got lost when converting
the plugin to the v4 interface: Instead of "spam_check", "email_check" had
been added to types.db. I did not remove "email_check" though as this would
introduce a regression - though very unlikely, somebody out there might be
