This reruns validation for instances that are successful
but marked as invalid or inconclusive.
Use this if you changed your validator to be more permissive,
and you want to grant credit for instances that were
originally marked as invalid.

If you link your functions (init_result(), compare_results(),
cleanup_result()) with validate_test.cpp,
you'll get a program that you can run as
validate_test file1 file2
and it will compare the two files
(this works only for validators that expect 1 file per result).
I added a makefile, sched/makefile_validator_test,
that you can use for this.
- server: shuffle code so that the above doesn't need to
link MySQL libraries
- client: if we fetch a master file and it contains no scheduler URLs,
show a message of class INTERNAL_ERROR
- client/scheduler: make CUDA_DEVICE_PROP.totalGlobalMem a double,
and remove dtotalGlobalMem.
Although NVIDIA reports RAM size as a size_t,
there's no reason to store it as an integer after that.

The feeder was erroneously putting targeted jobs
in the shared mem cache.
Changes:
- The feeder only enumerates jobs for which
workunit.transitioner_flags is zero.
NOTE: this field is nonzero iff the job is assigned.
- create_work: when creating an assigned jobs,
set workunit.transitioner_flags appropriately

This now supports two main use cases:
1) there's a job that you want to run once on all hosts,
present and future
(or all hosts belonging to a user, or to a team).
The job is never transitioned, validated, or assimilated.
2) There's a normal job for which you want to use only
hosts belonging to a specific user (e.g. cluster or cloud hosts).
This restriction can be made either when the job is created,
or on the fly,
e.g. as part of a scheme for accelerating batch completion.
For the latter purposes we now provide a function
restrict_wu_to_user(DB_WORKUNIT&, int userid);
The job goes through the standard
transitioner/validator/assimilator path.
These cases are enabled by config flags
<enable_assignment_multi/>
<enable_assignment/>
respectively.
Assignment of type 2) are no longer stored in shared mem,
so there is no limit on their number.
There is no longer a rule that assigned job names must contain "asgn".
NOTE: this requires a database update.

Some credit cheats (e.g. with credit_by_runtime) can be done

Fix this by capping the value at 1.1 times the 95th percentile

If found, set HOST_INFO::p_vm_extensions_disabled,
and pass this to the scheduler.
- scheduler (VBox app plan function) if a host has p_vm_extensions_disabled
set, don't sent it multicore VBox jobs.
Note: if you have a host with VM extensions, and they're disabled
in the BIOS, and you enable them, you can remove the
<p_vm_extensions_disabled> line from client_state.xml
and you'll be eligible to get multicore VM jobs again.

(reported by Kevin Reed).
The problem: cache inconsistency.
If there are 2 results for the same WU in shared mem,
and 2 scheduler instances get them around the same time,
they can send them with different app versions.
We already fixed this problem for HR by
1) rereading the relevant WU fields while deciding
whether to send the result
2) doing a "careful update" of the WU field using a where clause
to make sure it wasn't modified in the (short) interval
since rereading it.
I fixed the HAV problem in the same way,
and merged the two mechanisms to combine the DB queries.
Also:
- The rereads are done in slow_check() (see below).
- The careful updates are done in update_wu_on_send(),
and this is called *before* doing careful updates on result fields.
That way, if the WU updates fail, we don't have orphaned results.
- already_sent_to_different_platform_careful() (sic)
no longer does DB stuff, so it's merged with
already_send_to_different_hr_class() (better name)
NOTE: slow_check() is used in array scheduling only.
Score-based scheduling uses other code,
in which this bug is not yet fixed.
Locality scheduling doesn't support HR or HAV at all.
This should be unified.

and other operations.
You can now designate a user as "manager" for a particular app.
They can then:
- control job-submit permissions for that app
- deprecate/undeprecate versions of the app.
- abort jobs for that app
You can also designate a user a manage for the project.
They can then edit permissions and quotas,
as well as performing the app-specific functions for all apps.
This is described here:

This required some changes to the DB schema.

is a "runtime outlier", i.e. its runtime does
not correspond to the job's rsc_fpops_est.
Runtime outliers are not counted in the statistics for
elapsed time, turnaround time, and peak FLOPs count.
The is intended for applications like SETI@home,
some of whose jobs finish more or less instantly
(this happens if the data contains a lot of interference).
If a host happens to get a bunch of these short jobs,
its statistics will get skewed: in essence, the server
will think that the host is extremely fast,
and will send it too many jobs.

This assigns credit proportional to runtime*p_fpops.
To prevent cheating, p_fpops is capped at the 95th percentile value
among active hosts,
and runtime is capped at a specified limit.
This option supports apps, like LHC's CERNvm app,
that run for a certain amount of time and then exit.
The CreditNew system doesn't work for such apps.
- trickle_credit:
To prevent cheating,
cap p_fpops at the 95th percentile value among active hosts,
and require a limit on runtime.
- require that trickle handlers supply an initialization function

Otherwise, if you have a deprecated app with >= 200 jobs
(200 is the query's limit)
it could always get jobs for that app,
and never put anything into the cache.

- scheduler: when using elapsed time stats to predict runtime,
cap the estimated FLOPS at twice the peak FLOPS;
otherwise, if a host has received a lot of very short jobs
recently, it will get a too-high FLOPS estimate and
will exceed the rsc_fpops_bound limit.

Lets you specify, on a per-app basis,
that all instances should be done using the same app version.
This is for validation in the presence of GPUs.
- scheduler: code cleanup
- Instead of adding a bunch of non-DB fields to RESULT,
used a derived class SCHED_DB_RESULT.
- Instead of storing a pointer to BEST_APP_VERSION in RESULT,
store the structure itself.
This simplifies the memory allocation situation.
