2022-06-10til: introduce til_frame_plan_t and .cpu_affinityVito Caputo
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.
2022-06-10til: add ticks to til_module_context_tVito Caputo
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.
2022-06-07modules/moire: implement rudimentary moire moduleVito Caputo
This introduces a very naive unoptimized moire interference pattern module, it's rather slow complete with a sqrtf() per pixel per center.
