Mostly mechanical change, though threads.c needed some jiggering to
make the logical cpu id available to the worker threads.
Now render_fragment() can easily addresss per-cpu data created by
create_context().

Back in the day, there was no {create,destroy}_context(), so passing
num_cpus to just prepare_frame made sense. Modules then would
implicitly initialize themselves on the first prepare_frame() call
using a static initialized variable.
Since then things have been decomposed a bit for more sophisticated
(and cleaner) modules. It can be necessary to allocate per-cpu data
structures and the natural place to do that is @ create_context(). So
this commit wires that up.
A later commit will probably have to plumb a "current cpu" identifier
into the render_fragment() function. Because a per-cpu data structure
isn't particularly useful if you can't easily address it from within
your execution context.

This removes the submit-softly module, instead using a runtime
setting to toggle bilinear interpolation on the submit module.

Remove the silly kludge avoiding peripheral cells

This substantially reworks the cell sampling in submit.
As a result, it's now threaded in the rendering phase which now
resembles a texture mapper sans transformations.
This produces a full-screen rendering rather than a potentially
smaller one when the resolution wasn't cleanly divisable by the grid
size.
A new module, named submit-softly has also been added to expose the
bilinearly interpolated variant. The transition between cells is also
employing a smoothstep so it's not actually linear.
The original non-interpolated version is retained as well, at the same
submit module name.
Some minor cleanups happened as well, nothing worth mentioning, except
perhaps that the cells are now a uint8_t which is fine unless someone
tries to redefine NUM_PLAYERS > 255.

Just making things consistent, also dropping unnecessary player
assert from submit module. Future libs/grid may explore using
the "unassigned" zero player in taken calls for unassigning
cells like in simultaneously taken collision scenarios.

This module displays realtime battle for domination simulated
as 2D cellular automata.
This is just a test of the backend piece for a work-in-progress
multiplayer game idea. The visuals were kind of interesting to
watch so I figured may as well merge it as a module to share.
Enjoy!
PS: the results can vary a lot by tweaking the defines in submit.c
