(but not all) wasn't finished.
New logic: if the project has an NCI app then:
- make a list of NCI apps for which the client doesn't have
a job in progress.
- try to send one job for each of these apps
- do this even if no work is being requested.
- don't send jobs for NCI apps by other mechanisms
NOTE: the client logic isn't quite right for mixed NCI projects.
If there's no job for a given NCI app,
the client should do a scheduler RPC.
This isn't critical so we won't do this now.

and non-CPU-intensive applications.
An app can be specified as non-CPU-intensive in project.xml,
and this attribute can be set or cleared using the admin web interface.
Note: support for this was added to the client in 2011,
but we didn't add server-side support at that time.
This change is in 6.12 and later clients.

- add a config item vda_host_timeout.
A host that hasn't done a scheduler RPC for this long
is considered dead.
- a host that's not running a version 7+ client is considered dead
- host.cpu_efficiency (an otherwise unused field) is used
as a flag for dead hosts
- the scheduler clears the flag if the client is v7+
- vdad sets the flag for hosts where last RPC is old
- before choosing a host for chunk download,
vdad checks its client version.

- Allow projects to report "desired disk usage" (DDU).
If the client learns that a project wants disk space,
it can shrink the allocation to other projects.
- Base share computation on DDU rather than disk usage.
- Introduce the notion of "disk resource share".
This is defined (somewhat arbitrarily) as resource share
plus 1/10 of the largest resource share.
This is intended to ensure that even zero-share projects
get enough disk space to store app versions and data files;
otherwise they wouldn't be able to compute.
- server: use host.d_boinc_max (which wasn't being used)
to start d_project_share reported by client.
- volunteer storage: change the way hosts are allocated to chunks.
Allow hosts to store several chunks of the same file, if needed

It's not clear to me that this locking is beneficial,

These fields are size_t in NVIDIA's version of this;
however, cuDeviceGetAttribute() returns them as int,
so I don't see where this makes any difference.

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.

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.
