i.e. it wasn't zeroing out the whole structure.
The elapsed_time field (which isn't reported by old clients),

which led to zero credit (and maybe other problems)

like the above.

When we first send a job, we pick an app version,
then call wu_is_infeasible_fast()
to see if the host is able to run the job with that app version.
In addition to checking disk space etc.
this calls wu_is_infeasible_custom() to do project-specific checks
(e.g. for SETI@home: don't use GPUs for VLAR jobs).
However, when we resend a job, we pick an app version
(possibly different from the original one)
and send the job without any checking.
So, for example, we might send a VLAR job to a GPU,
or send a job to a host with insufficient disk space
(because free space has changed since original send).
Solution: call wu_is_infeasible_fast() before resending a job,
and if it returns true, mark the job as done and don't resend it.

Insteady of using its own XML input files,
the simulator now takes a client_state.xml file as input.
The simulator generates a synthetic workload based on the
projects, apps, app versions, WUs, and result it finds there.
This means that a user seeing aberrant behavior
can just send their client_state.xml file
and (hopefully) we can use the simulator to repro.
The simulator now can model GPUs.
As of this checkin, the simulator compiles but doesn't work.
There should be no change in the actual client.

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

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.

to accept CPU, NVIDIA and ATI jobs.
These prefs are shown only where relevant:
e.g., only for processor types for which the project has app versions,
and if it has versions for only one type, no pref is shown.
These prefs affect both client and scheduler.
The client won't ask for work for a device blocked by prefs,
and the scheduler won't send it.
This replaces earlier optional project-specific prefs for
"no CPU jobs" and "no GPU jobs".
(However, these prefs continue to be honored on the server side).

- the get_project_config.php fetch fails because no proxy config
- the manager gets the CC_STATUS before the ref site check has
