Move Lua modules for 'require' to indra/newview/scripts/lua/require.
Make viewer_manifest.py copy them into the viewer install image. Make the require() function look for them there.

+-- Organize Lua coroutines into fibers.
+
+-- In this usage, the difference between coroutines and fibers is that fibers
+-- have a scheduler. Yielding a fiber means allowing other fibers, plural, to
+-- run: it's more than just returning control to the specific Lua thread that
+-- resumed the running coroutine.
+
+-- fiber.launch() creates a new fiber ready to run.
+-- fiber.status() reports (augmented) status of the passed fiber: instead of
+-- 'suspended', it returns either 'ready' or 'waiting'
+-- fiber.yield() allows other fibers to run, but leaves the calling fiber
+-- ready to run.
+-- fiber.wait() marks the running fiber not ready, and resumes other fibers.
+-- fiber.wake() marks the designated suspended fiber ready to run, but does
+-- not yet resume it.
+-- fiber.run() runs all current fibers until all have terminated (successfully
+-- or with an error).
