* Improve the stability and maintainability of the Second Life Viewer code by cleaning up the initialization and main loop code
* Move the main loop to a separate thread so that infinite loops can be detected and debugged
= Tasks =
== LLViewerApp ==
* Create a LLViewerApp class based on LLAppb
* Move class initialization and parameter parsing to LLViewerApp
* Move all error handling to LLViewerApp (errors set a flag and sleep, LLViewerApp generates the exception)
* Move all debug/info/warning/error text printing to LLViewerApp
** Print text to a buffer instead of stdio
** Send the buffer to stdio in LLViewerApp loop
== LLViewerThread ==
* Create a LLViewerThread class based on LLThread
* Move the main loop into LLViewerThread
== Eliminate viewer.cpp ==
* Create proper C++ abstractions for any remaining code in viewer.cpp
== Watchdog ==
* Add a 'watchdog' to LLViewerApp to detect infinite loops and trigger a crash
* Ensure that the crash handler generates proper stack information for LLViewerThread
