*: librototiller->libtil

Largely mechanical rename of librototiller -> libtil, but
introducing a til_ prefix to all librototiller (now libtil)
functions and types where a rototiller prefix was absent.

This is just a step towards a more libized librototiller, and til
is just a nicer to type/read prefix than rototiller_.

+/* A knob exposes a binding for some float in a module's context
+ * which can be varied at runtime between frames to influence
+ * the output.  There's some overlap with settings, but settings
+ * are more intended for configuration applied at context
+ * creation, which won't vary frame-to-frame, but may influence
+ * the initial value and/or automatic behavior of knobs for
+ * instance, or even which knobs are available.
+ *
+ * At this time knobs will only apply to floats, accompanied by
+ * some rudimentary bounds.
+ *
+ * Integer types would probably be useful, and maybe a precision
+ * specifier, those can be added in the future as needed, but I'd
+ * like to keep it simple for now and see what kind of problems
+ * emerge.
+ *
+ * The current expectation is that a module context struct will
+ * incorporate an array of knobs, replacing loose floats already
+ * being automatically varied within the module frame-to-frame.
+ *
+ * The module will then use the knob_auto_* helpers below to
+ * access and manipulate the values, instead of directly
+ * accessing the loose floats as before.
+ *
+ * External manipulators of the knobs will use the knob_*
+ * helpers, instead of the knob_auto_* helpers, to
+ * access+manipulate the knobs.  These helpers are basically just
+ * to get external and internal manipulators to agree on which
+ * side owns control via the managed field.
