had set forum_preferences.special_user to "0000000",
as had been done in SETI@home for some reason.
Also, show user ID as well as name; name is not unique.

see http://boinc.berkeley.edu/trac/wiki/CreditNew
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)

change various std::string to char[n], to improve performance.
NOTE: std::string should ONLY be used in cases where there is
no a priori limit on string length.
If there's a limit (e.g. because the string originates in
a fixed-size database field) always use char[n].

Triggering the work generator is now done via the DB
instead of flat files.
Since only E@h uses locality scheduling,
I kept the DB changes in a separate file (db/schema_locality.sql).
There's a new field in the workunit table,
and that's a required update (in db_update.php)
- manager: compile fix

Removed my changes of 19 Jan 2010, which didn't work.
Added new mechanism: keep track of whether a job J has ever run in EDF.
If so, and if another job of the same project and resource type as J
is marked as deadline miss, then mark J as deadline miss,
so that it won't get preempted.
- web: change "result" to "task" in server status page
- admin web: show server stable SVN revision, not trunk

or an auth_ops() function (not necessarily both).
New projects are given an .htaccess file with no .htpasswd,
so they must either create a .htpasswd file
or define auth_ops() in order to use admin web pages.

and team names are represented.
In particular, edit_user_info_action.php was using
htmlentities() on names; this led to double-encoding.
The new rules:
1) no HTML tags allowed in either one.
This is enforced silently, using strip_tags()
2) names are stored in the DB exactly as entered.
They may contain chars like & and >.
They may contain non-ASCII characters
(use UTF-8 if you want them displayed correctly).
None of these are not escaped.
3) When the names are put in XML
(e.g. in scheduler reply or db_dump output)
they are XML-escaped.
This escapes <, &, and non-ASCII chars
4) The client leaves them in this form,
and writes them that way in GUI RPCs
and init_data.xml files.
5) The parsing of GUI RPC replies and init_data.xml files
XML-unescapes them.
