Preparatory commit for enabling cloneable/swappable fragments
There's an outstanding issue with the til_fb_page_t submission,
see comments. Doesn't matter for now since cloning doesn't happen
yet, but will need to be addressed before they do.

modules/checkers w/fill_module=$module requires a consistent
mapping of cpu to fragnum since it creates a per-cpu
til_module_context_t for the fill_module.
The existing implementation for threaded rendering maximizes
performance by letting *any* scheduled to run thread advance
fragnum atomically and render the acquired fragnum
indiscriminately. A side effect of this is any given frame, even
rendered by the same module, will have a random mapping of
cpus/threads to fragnums.
With this change, the simple til_module_t.prepare_frame() API of
returning a bare fragmenter function is changed to instead return
a "frame plan" in til_frame_plan_t. Right now til_frame_plan_t
just contains the same fragmenter as before, but also has a
.cpu_affinity member for setting if the frame requires a stable
relationship of cpu/thread to fragnum.
Setting .cpu_affinity should be avoided if unnecessary, and that
is the default if you don't mention .cpu_affinity at all when
initializing the plan in the ergonomic manner w/designated
initializers. This is because the way .cpu_affinity is
implemented will leave threads spinning while they poll for
*their* next fragnum using atomic intrinsics. There's probably
some room for improvement here, but this is good enough for now
to get things working and correct.

Also wire this up to the til_module_context_new() helper and
all its callers.
This is in preparation for modules doing more correct delta-T
derived animation.

This introduces a very naive unoptimized moire interference
pattern module, it's rather slow complete with a sqrtf() per
pixel per center.
