the NSE scheduler slop factor to be controlled from the user-specified
make-simulated code. Also added a null tb_compat file so we can
ignore any tb-* commands that get specified inside make-simulated.
These commands are anyway evaluated during the initial parse.

( ~ 4 mins on the 416 topo ). This was also driving up the load on
boss. After the fix, it takes 20-30 secs of tcl-to-tcl conversion that
happens on ops. Hardly any noticeable load on boss as well.

into a file in /proj/<pid>/exp/<eid>/logs/nse-vnodepktrate-<vnode>.log.
This proc is called from C++ if the NSE RT scheduler declares ``violation''
and before sending an NSESWAP event.

also stores previous mapping info in the lock file for debugging/data
collection. max_retries for reswap is also set high so we pretty much
go until some vnode gets mapped one-to-one and if that does not track
real-time, the experiment fails. There are also a couple of sleep
statements with times determined empirically so there is a chance for
as many pnodes to report ``violation'' as possible. All these changes
are for the ''doubling vnode weights'' method of sim auto-adaptation.

the nse instance. XXX Current hack is to do a killall since the pid file
was not stored by startnse. Will fix later.

takes a while to finish. Without this, later NSESWAP events from other pnodes
were being ignored since the event scheduler was blocked for a long time.

updating the client side scripts and nse binary during development
without updating disk images or using cvsup.
