New file. Move original fringe related declarations and code from dispextern.h and xdisp.c here. Rework code to support user defined fringe bitmaps, redefining standard bitmaps, ability to overlay user defined bitmap with overlay arrow bitmap, and add faces to bitmaps. (Voverflow_newline_into_fringe): Declare here. (enum fringe_bitmap_align): New enum. (..._bits): All bitmaps are now defined without bitswapping; that is now done in init_fringe_once (if necessary). (standard_bitmaps): New array with specifications for the standard fringe bitmaps. (fringe_faces): New array. (valid_fringe_bitmap_id_p): New function. (draw_fringe_bitmap_1): Rename from draw_fringe_bitmap. (draw_fringe_bitmap): New function which draws fringe bitmap, possibly overlaying bitmap with cursor in right fringe or the overlay arrow in the left fringe. (update_window_fringes): Do not handle overlay arrow here. Compare and copy fringe bitmap faces. (init_fringe_bitmap): New function. (Fdefine_fringe_bitmap, Fdestroy_fringe_bitmap): New DEFUNs to define and destroy user defined fringe bitmaps. (Fset_fringe_bitmap_face): New DEFUN to set face for a fringe bitmap. (Ffringe_bitmaps_at_pos): New DEFUN to read current fringe bitmaps. (syms_of_fringe): New function. Defsubr new DEFUNs. DEFVAR_LISP Voverflow_newline_into_fringe. (init_fringe_once, init_fringe): New functions. (w32_init_fringe, w32_reset_fringes) [WINDOWS_NT]: New functions.

If you think you may have found a bug in GNU Emacs, please
read the Bugs section of the Emacs manual for advice on
(1) how to tell when to report a bug, and
(2) how to write a useful bug report and what information
it needs to have.

There are three ways to read the Bugs section.

(1) In a printed copy of the Emacs manual.
You can order one from the Free Software Foundation;
see the file etc/ORDERS.  But if you don't have a copy on
hand and you think you have found a bug, you shouldn't wait
to get a printed manual; you should read the section right away
as described below.

(2) With Info.  Start Emacs, do C-h i to enter Info,
then m Emacs RET to get to the Emacs manual, then m Bugs RET
to get to the section on bugs.  Or use standalone Info in
a like manner.  (Standalone Info is part of the Texinfo distribution,
not part of the Emacs distribution.)

(3) By hand.  Do
    cat info/emacs* | more "+/^File: emacs,  Node: Bugs,"

Please first check the file etc/PROBLEMS (e.g. with C-h P in Emacs) to
make sure it isn't a known issue.
