* library/init.tcl: Integrated TIP #189. We source a separate file
(see below), instead of inlining the contents of that file. This should beeasier to maintain, and easier to backport/install in 8.4 installations. Note: Usage of Tcl Modules is restricted to non-safe interps. It cannot be loaded into a safe interp. * library/tm.tcl: New file, the v2 reference implementation for TIP #189, Tcl Modules.

+#
+# Searching for Tcl Modules. Defines a procedure, declares it as the
+# primary command for finding packages, however also uses the former
+# 'package unknown' command as a fallback.
+#
+# Locates all possible packages in a directory via a less restricted
+# glob. The targeted directory is derived from the name of the
+# requested package. I.e. the TM scan will look only at directories
+# which can contain the requested package. It will register all
+# packages it found in the directory so that future requests have a
+# higher chance of being fulfilled by the ifneeded database without
+# having to come to us again.
+#
+# We do not remember where we have been and simply rescan targeted
+# directories when invoked again. The reasoning is this:
+#
+# - The only way we get back to the same directory is if someone is
+# trying to [package require] something that wasn't there on the
+# first scan.
+#
+# Either
+# 1) It is there now: If we rescan, you get it; if not you don't.
+#
+# This covers the possibility that the application asked for a
+# package late, and the package was actually added to the
+# installation after the application was started. It shoukld
+# still be able to find it.
+#
+# 2) It still is not there: Either way, you don't get it, but the
+# rescan takes time. This is however an error case and we dont't
+# care that much about it
+#
+# 3) It was there the first time; but for some reason a "package
+# forget" has been run, and "package" doesn't know about it
+# anymore.
+#
+# This can be an indication that the application wishes to reload
+# some functionality. And should work as well.
+#
+# Note that this also strikes a balance between doing a glob targeting
+# a single package, and thus most likely requiring multiple globs of
+# the same directory when the application is asking for many packages,
+# and trying to glob for _everything_ in all subdirectories when
+# looking for a package, which comes with a heavy startup cost.
+#
+# We scan for regular packages only if no satisfying module was found.
