Bug description:  PECL install docs per extension need help

Description:
------------
For each PECL extension there is installation information, for both
Linux/Windows, that use many pecl related entities from global.ent. The
problem is these entities were created before the install.pecl chapter
existed in the manual. Windows DLL locations have also changed.

Changes needed:

- Deal with Windows DLL's as the links have changed. The new URL for these
is:
 http://pecl4win.php.net/
Note which are included in core ext/ and which are bundled in the separate
pecl dll download, and keep track of php versions (this info changes
through php 4, 5, 5.1, 5.2, 6) so for example a dll may be with core from
php4-5, but moved to the pecl downloads in 5.1+

- Collaborate with the pecl.php.net team for said dll files. Perhaps they
should link to the dll's instead, that would be nice

- Consistently document each PECL extension in a similar fashion by always
referring to install.pecl for compiling static and shared modules

- Deprecate some entities in favor of install.pecl info

- Surely other issues exist as well

The pecl.info entity, which should be used in every PECL extensions
documentation, now links to install.pecl so that was the first step :)
