doc-view.el ready for inclusion now

[Tassilo Horn]

Hi all,

doc-view.el is ready for inclusion now.

Since the last posting the following things have changed:

  - Now it uses plain GhostScript (plus dvipdfm for DVI files) which
    makes it about ten times faster than the old version that used
    ImageMagick's convert.

  - The first page gets displayed as soon as it is available and every
    few seconds the available pages are refreshed.  This can be
    suppressed with an option.

  - You can set the region (slice) of the image that should be
    displayed.  This allows cutting off the margins to save some display
    space.

  - Many smaller fixes and changes.
