DWDS/Dialing Concordance Code

+ tagged ddc-2.1.17

+ tagged ddc-2.1.17-rc2

* improved error messages in CConcSession::GetTokensFromStorageByBreak(), CConcSession::GetFileSnippets()
- was: concord_daemon_log("Error! Cannot read hit no %i \n", BreakNo); return false;
- now: throw CExpc(errReadSourceFile, "CConcSession::... cannot read $%s storage data for break #%i")
* improved error reporting in CDDCBranchServer::GetHitContexts()
- truncated *._storage_Token file was giving unhelpful legacy "\x{01}cannot read a source file" message
- new code trims \001 separator and prepends subcorpus identifier
* removed error return clauses in CConcSession::GetHits(): now just re-throw exceptions (they should now be caught higher up)

+ tagged ddc-2.1.17-rc1

* added rml.ini key "Software\Dialing\Lemmatizer\German\ExtEncoding" = "UTF8"
- allow legacy latin-1 indices to be handled gracefully

* removed old hard-codced 500MB limit on size of *._TOKATTR (string-buffer) in IndexSetForLoadingStage.cpp
- now use macro MAX_STRINGBUFFER_SIZE = (DWORD_MAX & (~AllFlags)) --> 2GB
- fixed limit check (the actual exception was previously only catching on 1st insertion after overflow)
* debugging for v1.x->v2.x index upgrade

* added missing m_ServerStats.m_xTimes.Scrub() in *Server::handle__status(): EMA decay
* fixed typo in LeafServer::handle__status(): xtavg keys was actually reporting qtavg
* EMA tweaks in DDCTimeAvg
- redefined DDCTimeAvg::TimeT as DDCTimeHiRes: use high-resolution clock if available for EMA
- handle counter overflow in DDCTimeAvg::Append()
- use current timestamp TimeT::Now() for DDCTimeAvg::operator+=(): avoid out-of-order insertions

+ corrected info message typo in ConcordUnion.cpp

+ SIZE_MAX hack for gcc 4.7.2 (kaskade, debian wheezy)

+ typo fix in doc/ddc_proto.pod
