Projects will need to update DB and recompile all back-end programs.
Summary:
- new way of computing credit
- "reliable host" mechanism is per app version
- "host punishment" mechanism is per app version
- adjustment of wu.rsc_fpops_est provides the
equivalent of per app version DCF
- max jobs in progress is now per app
- max jobs per RPC is now per app
TODO:
- reliable mechanism:
- populate and use host_app_version.error_rate
- populate host_app_version.turnaround
- host punishment:
- populate host_app_version.max_jobs_per_day
- populate host_app_version.n_jobs_today
- use app.max_jobs_per_day_init
- job limits:
- use app.max_jobs_in_progress, max_gpu_jobs_in_progress
- use app.max_jobs_per_rpc
- adjust wu.rsc_fpops_est
- remove old credit stuff
fpops_cumulative, credit_multiplier
credit computation in scheduler
- AVERAGE class: use the Knuth algorithm (Wikipedia)

- default: script can be run from command line;
to run from web you need to be logged in as a particular user.
(in addition to .htaccess protection).
- if include $cli_only at start of script:
can only be run from the command line.
- if include $skip_auth_ops at start of script:
can run from web without being logged in
(this is set ONLY in login_action.php)
- admin web: added $cli_only = true to a bunch of scripts

Got rid of auth_ops_cmdline() (not needed).
auth_ops() is now called in util_ops.inc;
every script in html/ops/ must include util_ops.inc.
Note: for existing projects, the admin web interface
will now show "access denied".
Projects must think about what access control policy they want,
and specify it in project.inc

Each account has an associated weak account key.
The user can see it by visiting weak_auth.php.
If you put the weak account key in the account file on a computer
(instead of the regular account key)
the computer will attach to the account.
But the weak account key cannot be used to log in
to the account on the web, or to do web RPCs, or anything else.
Note: this involves a scheduler change.
