Report it (along with disk usage) in scheduler request messages.
This will allow the scheduler to send file-delete commands
if the project is using more than its share.

log as well as the VM execution log. Maybe the hypervisor log
will tell us what is up with the virtual floppy device.
- VBOX: Don't retry commands that are expected to fail in normal use
cases. It slows down getting the VM up and running.
- VBOX: After starting the VM, use a timed loop waiting for the initial
VM state change instead of just waiting for 5 seconds. Older
machines can take longer than 5 seconds to switch from poweroff
to starting. If we hit the main poll loop in that state the wrapper
thinks we have crashed.
- VBOX: Strip carriage returns from all the vboxmanage output on
Windows.

launch the VirtualBox server-side application. This should complete the
needed work to run VirtualBox within the Windows sandboxed environment.
- WINSETUP: Remove the virtualized file system tag from the Windows Explorer
copied security token when launching BOINC Manager and BOINC Tray after
setup has completed. I believe this will resolve the new cookie issue
experienced by PTP/GR/CE.

If found, set HOST_INFO::p_vm_extensions_disabled,
and pass this to the scheduler.
- scheduler (VBox app plan function) if a host has p_vm_extensions_disabled
set, don't sent it multicore VBox jobs.
Note: if you have a host with VM extensions, and they're disabled
in the BIOS, and you enable them, you can remove the
<p_vm_extensions_disabled> line from client_state.xml
and you'll be eligible to get multicore VM jobs again.

and disable the use of them at VM creation time. Certain actions
within VirtualBox will force enabling them at runtime and cause
an error (like SMP support) but it should reduce confusion between
volunteers and projects when a VM configuration change now causes
a class of machine that used to work suddenly stop working.
- VBOX: Add some more helpful text notes for error conditions that
the volunteer might be able to address. For instance other
hypervisors locking the VM CPU features for exclusive use.
- VBOX: If we have to dump out the VM execution log on Windows, remove
excess carriage returns from the spew.
