CogVM binaries as per VMMaker.oscog-eem.1096/r3282

Fix assertClassOf:is: to handle immediates upstream of isClassOfNonImm:equalTo:.
Fixes a potential crash when x or y is sent to immediates (bytecodePrimX/Y).

Include the GdbARMPlugin on linux (Spur only) & Mac OS X (V3 & Spur).

CogVM binaries as per VMMaker.oscog-eem.1113/r3284

Redo free space allocation on Spur image load.  Provide a minimum ammount of
free space, taking into account extant free space.  Provisionally use
extraVMMemory in the header, defaulting to growHeadroom if extraVMMemory is
empty.  This can be revised if folks protest.

Exclude dumpImage: from Spur (no seg support yet)

These include release candidate Spur VMs for Squeak 5.

CogVM binaries as per VMMaker.oscog-eem.1117/r3287

Fix initialization of numPushNilsFunction and
pushNilSizeFunction in Newspeak Spur VMs.

So no change for the Squeak VMs, but fixing a serious regression for the Newspeak VMs that causes hard crashes in the right circumstances (it has to do with block activation).
