including the override flag.

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().

used for system process info
Old: vector of PROCINFO.
Descendants of a process were found by recursively
iterating through the vector.
Operations are O(n)
New: map of (id, PROCINFO),
and each PROCINFO has a vector of its children.
Operations are O(log(n))
Also combined Mac/Win/Linux variants of code that
was essentially the same.

Add parsed_tag and is_tag to the class,
so that parsing functions don't need to declare them
and pass them around.
- Complete the task of using XML_PARSER as the argument
to all parsing functions.
(Internally, many of these functions still use the old XML parser;
that's the next step.)

This leads to negative credit.
Fix: if peak flops is negative, set it to 50 GFLOPS

which prevented the client from cleaning up
subprocesses of misbehaving multiprocess apps.
- remote job submission system:
assign physical names to input files (based on their MD5)
rather than having the user provide physical names
- VM apps: eliminate vbox64 plan class. Only vbox.

- client: cc_config.xml: if <devnum> is omitted from a <exclude_gpu>,
it means exclude all instances of that GPU type

don't ask the project for jobs of that type

Compatibility: if your project is using upload signatures:
- set ignore_upload_certificates
- disable job creation
- let your job queue drain
- upgrade to new server software
- clear ignore_upload_certificates
- enable job creation

Compatibility:
clients that upgrade to this version should see nothing unusual.
Clients that downgrade from this version to a previous version
should see all projects reset
(i.e. tasks disappear and then get re-downloaded).
- manager: always show whether a file transfer is upload or download
- client: don't scale work requests by resource share
