These are all very well when we just want to dump the output to a log, or
whatever, but in a unit-test context it matters for comparison.

Also add "len" key to event data on LLProcess::getPump(). If you've used
setLimit(), event["data"].length() may not reflect the length of the
accumulated data in the ReadPipe.
Add unit test with stdin/stdout handshake with child process.

In the course of re-enabling the indra/test tests last year, Log generalized a
workaround I'd introduced in llsdmessage_test.cpp. In Linux viewer land, a
test program trying to catch an expected exception can't seem to catch it by
its specific class (across the libllcommon.so boundary), but must instead
catch std::runtime_error and validate the typeid().name() string. Log added a
macro for this idiom in llevents_tut.cpp. Generalize that macro further for
normal-case processing as well, move it to a header file of its own and use it
in all known places -- plus the new exception-catching tests in
llprocess_test.cpp.

Add LLProcess::FileParam to specify how to construct each child's standard
file slot, with lots of comments about features designed but not yet
implemented. The point is to design it with enough flexibility to be able to
extend to foreseeable use cases.
Add LLProcess::Params::files to collect up to 3 FileParam items. Naturally
this extends the accepted LLSD syntax as well.
Implement type="" (child inherits parent file descriptor) and "pipe" (parent
constructs anonymous pipe to pass to child).
Add LLProcess::FILESLOT enum, plus methods:
getReadPipe(FILESLOT), getOptReadPipe(FILESLOT)
getWritePipe(), getOptWritePipe()
getPipeName(FILESLOT): placeholder implementation for now
Add LLProcess::ReadPipe and WritePipe classes, as returned by get*Pipe().
WritePipe supports get_ostream() method for streaming to child stdin.
ReadPipe supports get_istream() method for reading from child stdout/stderr.
It also provides getPump() returning LLEventPump& so interested parties can
listen for arrival of new data on the aforementioned std::istream.
For "pipe" slots, instantiate appropriate *Pipe class.
ReadPipe and WritePipe classes are pure virtual bases for ReadPipeImpl and
WritePipeImpl, respectively: all implementation data are hidden in the latter
classes, visible only in llprocess.cpp. In fact each *PipeImpl class registers
itself for "mainloop" ticks, attempting nonblocking I/O to the underlying
apr_file_t on each tick. Data are buffered in a boost::asio::streambuf, which
bridges between std::[io]stream and the APR I/O calls.
Sanity-test ReadPipeImpl by using a pipe to absorb the Python "SyntaxError"
output from the successful syntax_error test, rather than alarming the user.
Add first few unit tests for validating FileParam. More tests coming!

When we reimplemented LLProcess on APR, necessitating APR's funny callback
mechanism to sense child-process status, every isRunning() or getStatus() call
called the APR poll function that calls ALL registered LLProcess callbacks. In
other words, every time any consumer called any LLProcess::isRunning() method,
all LLProcess callbacks were redundantly fired. Change that so that the single
APR poll function is called once per frame, courtesy of the "mainloop"
LLEventPump. Once per viewer frame should be well within the realtime duration
in which it's reasonable to expect child-process status to change.
In effect, this changes LLProcess's public API to introduce a dependency on
"mainloop" ticks. Add such ticks to llprocess_test.cpp as well.

Once again we've been bitten by comparison failure between "c:\somepath" and
"C:\somepath". Normalize paths in both Python helper scripts to make that
comparison more robust.

Include logic to engage Linden apr_procattr_autokill_set() extension: on
Windows, magic CreateProcess() flag must be pushed down into apr_proc_create()
level. When using an APR package without that extension, present
implementation should lock (e.g.) SLVoice.exe lifespan to viewer's on Windows
XP but probably won't on Windows 7: need magic flag on CreateProcess().
Using APR child-termination callback requires us to define state (e.g.
LLProcess::RUNNING). Take the opportunity to present Status, capturing state
and (if terminated) rc or signal number; but since most of the time all caller
really wants is to log the outcome, also present status string, encapsulating
logic to examine state and describe exited-with-rc vs. killed-by-signal.
New Status logic may report clearer results in the case of a Windows child
process killed by exception.
Clarify that static LLProcess::isRunning(handle) overload is only for use when
the original LLProcess object has been destroyed: really only for unit tests.
We necessarily retain our original platform-specific implementations for just
that one method. (Nonstatic isRunning() no longer calls static method.)
Clarify log output from llprocess_test.cpp in a couple places.

On Posix, these and the corresponding getProcessID()/getProcessHandle()
accessors produce the same pid_t value; but on Windows, it's useful to
distinguish an int-like 'id' useful to human log readers versus an opaque
'handle' for passing to platform-specific API functions. So make the
distinction in a platform-independent way.

Using a Params block gives compile-time checking against attribute typos. One
might inadvertently set myLLSD["autofill"] = false and only discover it when
things behave strangely at runtime; but trying to set myParams.autofill will
produce a compile error.
However, it's excellent that the same LLProcess::create() method can accept
either LLProcess::Params or a properly-constructed LLSD block.

LLProcessLauncher had the somewhat fuzzy mandate of (1) accumulating
parameters with which to launch a child process and (2) sometimes tracking the
lifespan of the ensuing child process. But a valid LLProcessLauncher object
might or might not have ever been associated with an actual child process.
LLProcess specifically tracks a child process. In effect, it's a fairly thin
wrapper around a process HANDLE (on Windows) or pid_t (elsewhere), with
lifespan management thrown in. A static LLProcess::create() method launches a
new child; create() accepts an LLSD bundle with child parameters. So building
up a parameter bundle is deferred to LLSD rather than conflated with the
process management object.
Reconcile all known LLProcessLauncher consumers in the viewer code base,
notably the class unit tests.
