project, it most have no runnable jobs for ANY resource.
- client: work-fetch bug fix: when setting requests in the
shortfall case, don't request anything if project is backed off
or overworked for the resource.

- WINSCR: Get rid of the 'Up to 5 second wait' for the data thread
to terminate. Force terminate the thread and clean up the
graphics app in a clean-up routine. Forcing the user to wait
when they return to the system isn't a good idea.
- WINSCR: Fix screensaver issue where the screensaver locks up
when the graphics application deadlocks for one reason or
another.
Create two new threads:
1. Monitor system for keyboard and mouse events.
2. Shuffle window z-order positions if needed.
The keyboard/mouse event monitor is isolated from either
the core client getting stuck in a loop and not returning
the results of an RPC or the window shuffling code which
can get stuck if the graphics application dead locks.
The window shuffle code is isolated due to the
BroadcastSystemMessage() API using something akin to
SendMessage() which waits for a return value from the
target windows winproc. If a graphics application
deadlocks for one reason or another it'll cause
the thread to stall. This isn't terminal and so we
just wait for the next time the data thread chooses
a new application and terminates the old one which
will cause the thread to resume.
This should resolve all outstanding issues with the
screensaver not exiting when the mouse or keyboard
is used.

There are situations where multiple projects can legitimately
have large negative LTD on a uniprocessor.
Instead...
- client: add <zero_debts> option to cc_config.xml
svn path=/trunk/boinc/; revision=17328
1) if an instance is idle, get work from highest-debt project,
even if it's overworked.
2) if resource has a shortfall, get work from highest-debt
non-overworked project
3) if there's a fetchable non-overworked project with no runnable jobs,
get from from the highest-debt one.
(each step is done first for GPU, then CPU)
Clause 3) is new.
It will cause the client to get jobs for as many projects as possible,
even if there is no shortfall.
This is necessary to make the notion of "overworked" meaningful
(otherwise, any project with long jobs can become overworked).
It also maintains as much variety as possible (like pre-6.6 clients).
Also (small bug fix) if a project is overworked for resource R,
request work for R only in case 1).

stop accumulating debt if it's at or around zero.
This prevents other projects from being driven unboundedly negative.
- client: if the number of overworked projects exceeds the number
of device instances, clear debts; this indicates that an earlier
client was buggy and produced bad debt values.
svn path=/trunk/boinc/; revision=17325
This fixes a bug that can cause debts to NEVER get updated.
- client: added "abort_jobs_on_exit" feature
(available by --abort_jobs_on_exit cmdline
or <abort_jobs_on_exit> in cc_config.xml).
If set, when the client is exited by user request
(this includes signals on Unix)
it marks all pending jobs as aborted,
and does a scheduler RPC to all projects with jobs.
When these are completed the client exits.
This is useful when BOINC is being used on grids
where it is wiped clean after each run.
