Convert a slurmctd power management data structure from array to list in
    order to eliminate the possibility of zombie child suspend/resume
    processes.
bug 3516

This now matches the behavior documented in sbatch.

This resolves a problem where the maximum cpu frequency would be set
to the minimum available on the node by the batch step. This is due
to the batch step leaving cpu_freq_{min,max,gov} uninitialized to zero,
which is then translated to a request to set the frequency to the lowest
available in the node. This did not impact 16.05 or earlier, as a request
for a zero frequency was ignored by a quirk of _cpu_freq_freqspec_num.
This quirk was removed by commit f40e1c01 before 17.02.0-rc1.

cause potential deadlock when/if TRES changed in the database and the
slurmctld wasn't made aware of the change.  This would be very rare.

The lock was originally there to keep new jobs from grabbing the assoc
information.  If the lock was done afterwards the worst case is we get the new
information.

It was determined we didn't need the write locks on the job and no locks were
needed on the node either.

Doing these different locked beforehand would create a window where you could
get a config write lock

This will be triggered after either a burst buffer job_begin function
  or select plugin job_begin function fails. Without this change, the
  "squeue -i" and "scontrol show job" commands can report old job
  state information.

A 17.02 controller,sacctmgr couldn't talk to a "master/17.11" DBD
because the 17.02 client was talking attempting to talk to the DBD with
the 17.02's MIN_PROTOCOL_VERSION -- which was 15.08 and is more than 2
version behind the master. The master's MIN_PROTOCOL_VERSION is 16.05,
so it couldn't unpack the messages.

The controller should always communicate at it's current protocol to the
DBD.

For federations, it's possible that a higher version controller could
talk to a lower version controller. So the cluster needs to talk to the
remote cluster using the remote cluster's protocol version -- which is
given back from the DBD.

Enable through SchedulerParameters. Will sort by youngest jobs first,
rather than based on priority. Use alongside 'preempt_strict_order' if
you don't want the plugin to try to further optimize the preemption
list.

Bug 3457.

Introduced by commit 059275f6 when the timer is trigger.
Releasing the locks means that job_ptr may point to an element that was
deleted by a different thread in the meantime. Restructuring the code
to advance the iterator prevents this - the iterator itself does not have
this issue as the List structure will manage the position during the
sleep().

While here, move the reservation update handling outside of this
loop to simplify operation. This does not need to piggy-back on the
scan of the job_list - switching to using list_for_each should
mitigate some of the performance loss by needing a second full pass.
