client: add config option to not lower client priority 

We added code a couple of months ago to lower client priority:
on Win, this is SetPriorityClass(),
which lowers I/O and memory priority as well as CPU.
This has the desired effect, i.e. to reduce the performance impact
of BOINC when it's doing things like copying large files.
However, it means that BOINC can take a long time to start at boot,
which may be disconcerting to some users.
