- client: fix job scheduler problem: 

old: RR simulation marks some jobs as missing their deadline,
        and the job scheduler runs those jobs as "high priority".
    problem: those generally aren't the ones we should run.
        E.g. if the client has a lot of jobs from a project,
        typically the ones with later deadlines are the ones
        whose deadlines are missed in the simulation.
        But in this case the EDF policy says we should run
        the ones with earliest deadlines.
    new: if a project has N deadline misses,
        run its N earliest-deadline jobs,
        regardless of whether they missed their deadline in the sim.
    Note: this is how it used to be (as designed by John McLeod).
        I attempted to improve it, and got it wrong.
