commit, mostly relating to the scale of values in the ".nodes" file
produced by ext2sim. Making this file CIF syntax seemed unnecessary,
so I removed the CIF syntax and scaling. "extresist" can now produce
an apparently valid output on a standard cell layout. Even with the
change, the extresist output is still only pseudo-hierarchical, so
this does not preclude the need for eliminating the .sim format file
in favor of the .ext file, but it provides a working intermediate
form.

Merged recent changes from master back into bplane, as the efficiency of
bplane for doing extraction on large layouts is unquestionably better.
Fixed the implementation of DBMoveCell() for bplane. Corrected an error
in the bplane version of dbScaleCell() that enumerates cell uses but
does not free the list.

Merged recent changes from master branch into bplane branch. Testing the
bplane implementation which has about a 5x improvement in extraction times
for large layouts, which is significant enough to move ahead with the bplane
implementation; however, the bplane implementation has not been thoroughly
vetted yet, so it will remain a branch until such time that it has been
validated.
the compiler. Some are obscure functions (plot verstatec hasn't
been used in years) but others (like SPICE distributed junctions)
are potentially significant sources of unexpected crashes on
systems that don't zero uninitialized memory.
