Log Message:
Update parrot to version 3.10.0.  Subsequent updates to follow...

Pkgsrc changes:
 * Adapt to changes in list of installed files
 * Remove a now-irrelevant patch, add another as a workaround
   for a timing-dependent patch (done differently in later revisions)

Upstream changes:

- Core
   + The mark VTABLE was added to the Select PMC
   + The Parrot::Embed Perl 5 module was removed from parrot.git and now lives
     at https://github.com/parrot/parrot-embed
   + A set_random method was added to the Integer PMC, so random numbers can
     be generated without needing to load math dynops
   + A new implementation of green threads was added to Parrot, in preparation
     for a robust hybrid threading system. Green threads are currently
     not available on Windows.
- Languages
   + Winxed
     - 'multi' modifier improved
     - throw "string" now emits throw instead of die
     - several optimizations in generated code
     - improved some error dianostics
- Community
   + Parrot Foundation was accepted to Google Code-In 2011. We
     could always use more volunteers.  Task ideas are on the wiki:
         https://github.com/parrot/parrot/wiki/Google-Code-In-Task-Ideas
- Documentation
- Tests
   + Added tests for recently-fixed bugs using return :flat and
     ResizableStringArrays.
