This assigns credit proportional to runtime*p_fpops.
To prevent cheating, p_fpops is capped at the 95th percentile value
among active hosts,
and runtime is capped at a specified limit.
This option supports apps, like LHC's CERNvm app,
that run for a certain amount of time and then exit.
The CreditNew system doesn't work for such apps.

To prevent cheating,
cap p_fpops at the 95th percentile value among active hosts,
and require a limit on runtime.
- require that trickle handlers supply an initialization function

in GUI RPC, change RESULT.gpu_mem_wait to scheduler_wait.
It means that the app did a boinc_temporary_exit(),
and is waiting to be rescheduled.
GPU mem wait is one source of this, not the only one

by simulating time-slicing explicitly.
Also simulate changes in project REC
and hence in scheduling priority.
- client: add a log flag "rrsim_detail" that prints
time-slice-level info.

- edit label text
- increase opacity of main area;
otherwise some text is hard to read
- change borders from blue to light gray.
In general shouldn't use primary colors
- display credit as integer
- reduce size of project name;
otherwise long names don't fit (on Win)
- don't use "(in slot x)".
"Slot" is not part of the vocabulary here.

types for which we have no app versions
- client: if too many <coproc> elements in cc_config.xml,
detect it and inform user

Otherwise, if you have a deprecated app with >= 200 jobs
(200 is the query's limit)
it could always get jobs for that app,
and never put anything into the cache.

and file signatures
- client: when describing app versions in scheduler requests,
we still must use CUDA instead of NVIDIA; that's what's in the server code.

the <working_global_preferences> element in
scheduler RPC request
(tells the server that there's an override file).
- account manager RPC: add <working_global_preferences> element,
including the override flag.
- web: add "no time limit" option for forum search
- web: increase show-user-post query limit to 10000

- scheduler: when using elapsed time stats to predict runtime,
cap the estimated FLOPS at twice the peak FLOPS;
otherwise, if a host has received a lot of very short jobs
recently, it will get a too-high FLOPS estimate and
will exceed the rsc_fpops_bound limit.

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().
