* 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
Added mutexes in the variable server listener thread and each variable server thread.
During checkpoint restart all of these mutexes are locked by the master thread to
stop accepting new connections and stop all read/writing to all variable server clients.
Communication is resumed after the checkpoint has been reloaded.

I changed trick comm so that there is only one version built, not a slightly different version
if you are in or out of a sim. While I was in the trick comm code, I removed all of the
unnecessary system header file inclusions out of tc.h. I modified each of the source files
to include the system files it requires. Some sim_services files were including tc.h and
also had to be edited to add headers. I removed the stand-alone makefiles out of all
of the trick_utils directories. Finally I modified the master makefile to exclude the
trick_util directories comm, math, and units from being archived into libtrick.a. Each of
those directories will create their own library and will be included when linking a Trick sim.

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.
