reduce its runtime from O(N^2) to O(N),
where N is the number of runnable jobs
(which can be in the thousands).
This will make the client emulator run a lot faster,
and will reduce the client CPU overhead a bit.
- API: change boinc_get_opencl_ids() so that it returns
a BOINC error code (< -100) if the app_init.xml is
missing or bad (i.e. we're running standalone),
and an OpenCL error code (> -100) if an OpenCL call failed.

so that they do what they're supposed to
(i.e. enforce resource shares)
- client: change log flag <debt_debug> to <priority_debug>
- client simulator: update REC even with large delta-t.
- client simulator: handle "no new work" apps correctly

- Fix build problems on Mac OS X using autotools
- Consistently use #if HAVE_X for platform checks,
rather than #ifdef HAVE_X or #if defined(HAVE_X)
- In Unix build, make lots of compiler checks standard
- Fix some compile warnings
From Matt Arsenault.
Note: there are now lots of compile warnings in clientgui/ on Unix,
mostly in WxWidgets code

add a mechanism so that apps can report sub-processes
that are not descendants (e.g., virtual machines)
These processes are then counted as part of the app,
not as "non-BOINC CPU time".
This fixes a bug where processing was incorrectly suspended
because CPU usage by VM apps exceeded the "CPU usage limit" pref.
Implementation:
- the PIDs of the processes in question
are passed from app to client via shared-memory,
in the app_status channel.
A new variant of boinc_report_app_status() supports this.
- the VBox wrapper queries the PID of the VM,
and reports it in this way.
- procinfo_app() includes a new argument: a list of PIDs
that are part of the app, although not ancestrally
related to the main process.
- in the client, ACTIVE_TASK now includes a vector "other_pids".
If this is nonempty, it's passed to procinfo_app().

and install at the top of the cffft loop, and more locations if desired:
SAFE_EXIT_CHECK;
I'd like to implement these as BOINC API functions, but have not yet done so.

otherwise non-ASCII characters in client_state.xml

i.e. those that create subprocesses.
Previously, the client's job control options (suspend/resume/quit)
would not work for subprocesses.
Multiprocess apps must initialize with something like:
BOINC_OPTIONS options;
boinc_options_defaults(options);
options.multi_process = true;
boinc_init_options(&options);
Note: an application can be both multi-thread and multi-process.
In this case set options.multi_thread as well.
- wrapper: add support for multi-process apps.
Previously, suspend/resume operations did not work for subprocesses.
If a task is multi-process, you must include
<multi_process>1</multi_process>
in its descriptor.

Not necessary.
- wrapper: add optional <append_cmdline_args/> element to
task descriptor.
If set, pass the wrapper's cmdline args to that task.
NOTE: previously they were always passed.
If you want this behavior, you now must set this.

1) old-style apps with graphics in main program.
No one should be using these anymore.
2) writing init_data.xml in boinc_finish().
This was used by deprecated "compound app" scheme
- scheduler: if request reports results that were previously reported,
that's evidence that the previous reply was not received by client.
It may have contained results.
So set a "resend lost results" flag.
