* Adds the send_once command and message type, which allows a user to request a variable to be sent immediately and only once (intended to replace the var_add, var_send, var_clear idiom that is commonly used for this purpose)
* Minor refactoring of variable server internals to reduce repeated code
* Adds SIM_test_varserv to integration test to test basic variable server functionality
* Changes graphics client for SIM_billiards to use var_send_once as an example of intended use
* Add documentation for var_send_once in docs and tutorial
* Set exit_code_enabled in trick unit tests to be true by default
* Patch for failing bookworm build
* #1086 append runtime allocations when sie is requested instead of initialization
* #1088 change sie error to warning and improve warning message
* #1089 lowercase powertools in centOS 8 config

Used the mods field in the attributes to indicate of "--" was specified in the header file. We
still save the units as "1" to keep it compatible with udunits. When outputting the variable
in data recording or variable server we check to see if the mods field for "--" is set. We
output "--" if the mods field is set. Also allowed "--" to persist in data products.
refs #254
Copied the units_conv.c from 15 that includes the new units to master.
Swept through the code removing includes to Unit.hh and UCF.h where they
are no longer needed. Remade makefile dependencies.
refs #231
Modified ICG to save the non-canonical name for STLs. This is typically more readable
because it is shorter. Added code to the variable server to filter out requests accessing
STLs, because those accesses will not currently work.
refs #206
Added a flag called validate_address to each variable server thread. When
activated each pointer address will be tested to see if it is in memory
the memory manager is tracking. If it is then everything proceeds normally.
If it does not, then an error return value is returned for the value of this
variable.
refs #193
Duplicating change from 15.1.1.
If a variable resolves to a class/structure type the variable server tries to free the
attributes associated with that variable name. But the attributes usually point to
a fixed place in memory that is not allocated. I removed the free statement. I don't
believe this will lead to a memory leak.
refs #165
Added a time variable that is in seconds. A created a special case
for var_add if you add "time" then this variable will be added to
the list of variables returned.
trick.var_add("time")
refs #151
Reorganized. Created a new top level include directory that will hold all of Trick's header files. Moved all of the Trick headers to this directory. Created a libexec directory that holds all of the executables that users don't need to execute directly. Changed all of the executables remaining in bin to start with "trick-". In the sim_services directories changed all source files to find the Trick headers in their new location. Since all of the include files are gone in sim_services, removed the src directories as well, moving all of the source files up a level. Moved the makefiles, docs, man, and other architecture independent files into a top level share directory. Renamed lib_${TRICK_HOST_CPU} to lib64 or lib depending on the platform we're currently on.
