adding 5.8.2

New page

* MGR: Fix segfault in simple gui when message button is clicked. SetBackgroundStyle() needs to be called after the window is created.
* core client: if swap space is zero, it must not have been measured on this host; don't use it in process scheduling
* DIAG: Clean up some warnings and add a new exception type to the list of known exceptions.
* Win SETUP: Make Windows XP or better require passwords for the service accounts again.
* Win SETUP: Fix a spelling mistake that JM7 found.
* core client: fixed crashing bug that happens when attaching to a project with wrong URL (e.g. setiathome.ssl.berkeley.edu). The fix allows the project to attach but prints a warning. It would be better to not allow the attach; I'll get back to this later
* core client: Change function that calculates RAM and SWAP used by a science project to return the max used by a process instead of totaling the process/child processes. Fixes the problem where the same RAM and SWAP used gets counted multiple times for some science apps.
* Manager: get rid of "CPU throttled" messages
* Manager: enhancements to Statistics tab (can click on project name in multi-project view) from Mifistor_x
* core: if we're preempting an app and leave it in memory because no checkpoint yet, say so in message
* MGR: Updates to disk usage pie charts from Frank Weiler.
* core client: fix problems when user aborts result (mark it as CPU_SCHED_PREEMPTED so scheduler doesn't try to preempt it; that confuses things)
* changed format of Deferring Comm messages
* core client: backwards > in PROJECT::some_download_stalled(). This caused the client to keep fetching work from a project with stalled downloads.
* core client: sort daily stats records in case they get out of order somehow
* manager: use user-friendly app names
* SCR: Disable the diagnostic support for release builds of the Windows screensaver. A smarter thing to do in the future is to write the log files to the 'temp' directory.
