[slime-devel] [PATCH] add eldoc support (take 2)

[Sean O'Rourke]

Take 2 on adding eldoc support to SLIME.  Things to note:

- support for GNU version >= 21.3 using hook
  ``eldoc-print-current-symbol-info-function''; older versions use
  advice.
- 2 approaches to caching arglist lookups; see variable
  ``slime-cache-type'' for details.
- avoids interning symbols when looking for functions that don't
  exist.
- function ``slime-documentation'' to display documentation rather
  than description for thing-at-point.

Try it out!  Comments welcome.
