For reasons not yet diagnosed, specifically in Mac Release builds, the tests
in test_httprequest.hpp consistently crash with a backtrace suggesting that
the worker thread is calling LLCore::HttpLibcurl::completeRequest() after the
foreground thread calls HttpRequest::destroyService().
Weirdly, even executing a tut::skip() call in every test<n>() function up to
the point of the crash does not eliminate the crash.

NickyD discovered that the substitute default allocator used for llcorehttp
tests was returning badly-aligned storage, which caused access violations on
alignment-sensitive data such as std::atomic. Thanks Nicky!!
Moreover, the llcorehttp test assertions regarding memory usage, well-
intentioned though they are, have been causing us trouble for years. Many have
already been disabled.
The problem is that use of test_allocator.h affected *everything* defined with
that header file's declarations visible. That inevitably included specific
functions in other subsystems. Those functions then (unintentionally) consumed
the special allocator, throwing off the memory tracking and making certain
memory-related assertions consistently fail.
This is a particular, observable bad effect of One Definition Rule violations.
Within a given program, C++ allows multiple definitions for the same entity,
but requires that all such definitions be the same. Partial visibility of the
global operator new() and operator delete() overrides meant that some
definitions of certain entities used the default global allocator, some used
llcorehttp's. There may have been other, more subtle bad effects of these ODR
violations.
If one wanted to reimplement verification of the memory consumption of
llcorehttp classes:
* Each llcorehttp class (for which memory tracking was desired) should declare
class-specific operator new() and operator delete() methods. Naturally,
these would all consume a central llcorehttp-specific allocator, but that
allocator should *not* be named global operator new().
* Presumably that would require runtime indirection to allow using the default
allocator in production while substituting the special allocator for tests.
* Recording and verifying the memory consumption in each test should be
performed in the test-object constructor and destructor, rather than being
sprinkled throughout the test<n>() methods.
* With that mechanism in place, the test object should provide methods to
adjust (or entirely disable) memory verification for a particular test.
* The test object should also provide a "yes, we're still consuming llcorehttp
memory" method to be used for spot checks in the middle of tests -- instead
of sprinkling in explicit comparisons as before.
* In fact, the llcorehttp test object in each test_*.hpp file should be
derived from a central llcorehttp test-object base class providing those
methods.

Hopefully this is temporary until we solve the problem of crashy llcorehttp
test executable on Mac.

Using boost::fibers::unbuffered_channel can block the mainthread when calling mPendingCoprocs.push (LLCoprocedurePool::enqueueCoprocedure)
From the documentation:
- If a fiber attempts to send a value through an unbuffered channel and no fiber is waiting to receive the value, the channel will block the sending fiber.
This can happen if LLCoprocedurePool::coprocedureInvokerCoro is running a coroutine and this coroutine calls yield, resuming the viewers main loop. If inside
the main loop someone calls LLCoprocedurePool::enqueueCoprocedure now push will block, as there's no one waiting for a result right now.
The wait would be in LLCoprocedurePool::coprocedureInvokerCoro at the start of the while loop, but we have not reached that yet again as LLCoprocedurePool::coprocedureInvokerCoro
did yield before reaching pop_wait_for.
The result is a deadlock.
boost::fibers::buffered_channel will not block as long as there's space in the channel. A size of 4096 (DEFAULT_QUEUE_SIZE) should be plenty enough for this.

On login failure, LLLogin now tries to sync up with SLVersionChecker. It waits
for up to 10 seconds before shrugging and giving up. Since that coroutine can
now block for that long, make the llogin_test failure cases wait at least that
long too.

Delete the test for SRV timeout: lllogin no longer issues an SRV query. That
test only confuses the test program without exercising any useful paths in
production code.
As with other tests dating from the previous LLCoros implementation, we need a
few llcoro::suspend() calls sprinkled in so that a fiber marked ready -- by
fulfilling the future for which it is waiting -- gets a chance to run.
Clear LLEventPumps between test functions.

which is, of course, different in Visual Studio (__FUNCSIG__).
Use LL_PRETTY_FUNCTION in DEBUG output instead of plain __FUNCTION__.

This is like the existing reset() method, except that reset() is specifically
intended for shutdown: it disables every existing LLEventPump in such a way
that it cannot be subsequently reused. (The original idea was to disconnect
listeners in DLLs unloaded at shutdown.)
clear() forcibly disconnects all existing listeners, but leaves LLEventPumps
ready for reuse. This is useful (e.g.) for test programs to reset the state of
LLEventPumps between individual test functions.

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).
