      SL-793: Use Boost.Fiber instead of the "dcoroutine" library. · 66981fab
      Nat Goodspeed authored
      Longtime fans will remember that the "dcoroutine" library is a Google Summer
      of Code project by Giovanni P. Deretta. He originally called it
      "Boost.Coroutine," and we originally added it to our 3p-boost autobuild
      package as such. But when the official Boost.Coroutine library came along
      (with a very different API), and we still needed the API of the GSoC project,
      we renamed the unofficial one "dcoroutine" to allow coexistence.
      
      The "dcoroutine" library had an internal low-level API more or less analogous
      to Boost.Context. We later introduced an implementation of that internal API
      based on Boost.Context, a step towards eliminating the GSoC code in favor of
      official, supported Boost code.
      
      However, recent versions of Boost.Context no longer support the API on which
      we built the shim for "dcoroutine." We started down the path of reimplementing
      that shim using the current Boost.Context API -- then realized that it's time
      to bite the bullet and replace the "dcoroutine" API with the Boost.Fiber API,
      which we've been itching to do for literally years now.
      
      Naturally, most of the heavy lifting is in llcoros.{h,cpp} and
      lleventcoro.{h,cpp} -- which is good: the LLCoros layer abstracts away most of
      the differences between "dcoroutine" and Boost.Fiber.
      
      The one feature Boost.Fiber does not provide is the ability to forcibly
      terminate some other fiber. Accordingly, disable LLCoros::kill() and
      LLCoprocedureManager::shutdown(). The only known shutdown() call was in
      LLCoprocedurePool's destructor.
      
      We also took the opportunity to remove postAndSuspend2() and its associated
      machinery: FutureListener2, LLErrorEvent, errorException(), errorLog(),
      LLCoroEventPumps. All that dual-LLEventPump stuff was introduced at a time
      when the Responder pattern was king, and we assumed we'd want to listen on one
      LLEventPump with the success handler and on another with the error handler. We
      have never actually used that in practice. Remove associated tests, of course.
      
      There is one other semantic difference that necessitates patching a number of
      tests: with "dcoroutine," fulfilling a future IMMEDIATELY resumes the waiting
      coroutine. With Boost.Fiber, fulfilling a future merely marks the fiber as
      ready to resume next time the scheduler gets around to it. To observe the test
      side effects, we've inserted a number of llcoro::suspend() calls -- also in
      the main loop.
      
      For a long time we retained a single unit test exercising the raw "dcoroutine"
      API. Remove that.
      
      Eliminate llcoro_get_id.{h,cpp}, which provided llcoro::get_id(), which was a
      hack to emulate fiber-local variables. Since Boost.Fiber has an actual API for
      that, remove the hack.
      
      In fact, use (new alias) LLCoros::local_ptr for LLSingleton's dependency
      tracking in place of llcoro::get_id().
      
      In CMake land, replace BOOST_COROUTINE_LIBRARY with BOOST_FIBER_LIBRARY. We
      don't actually use the Boost.Coroutine for anything (though there exist
      plausible use cases).

      Will wait for a response from @graham_linden regarding moving the sRGB conversion functions in llmath.h to llrender.

      Make sure lights are in the correct color space.
      Bonus: cache the sRGB color in setLightColor on point and spot lights.  Frees up a pow and some multiplies on the CPU every frame.
