Creating a thread was not thread-safe. The irony.
The video-driver has a function GameLoopPause() which first checks
if the thread is the game-thread or not. For this it needs access
to this->game_thread. This variable is set in StartNewThread().
However, due to timing, it is well possible GameLoopPause() is
called from the thread well before this->game_thread is assigned.
And so we have a race-condition!
Simply solve this by preventing a thread to start till we are
done with our bookkeeping.

the main thread.

Basically, modal windows had their own thread-locking for what
drawing was possible. This is a bit nonsense now we have a
game-thread. And it makes much more sense to do things like
NewGRFScan and GenerateWorld in the game-thread, and not in a
thread next to the game-thread.
This commit changes that: it removes the threads for NewGRFScan
and GenerateWorld, and just runs the code in the game-thread.
On regular intervals it allows the draw-thread to do a tick,
which gives a much smoother look and feel.
It does slow down NewGRFScan and GenerateWorld ever so slightly
as it spends more time on drawing. But the slowdown is not
measureable on my machines (with 700+ NewGRFs / 4kx4k map and
a Debug build).
Running without a game-thread means NewGRFScan and GenerateWorld
are now blocking.

We assume a conforming C++11 compiler environment that has a valid <thread>-header.
Failure to run a real thread is handled gracefully.

so they don't freeze OpenTTD when for example the network connection got severed. Thanks to glx for writing the mutex implementation for Windows.

called when a thread is terminated. Now GenWorld- and SaveLoad-thread cleanup theirselves correctly, while Fibers don't (as that causes access-violations)

something more than whitespace as description of files that don't have a description.

threading we have better extendable.

- A proper ./configure, so everything needs to be configured only once, not for every make.
- Usage of makedepend when available. This greatly reduces the time needed for generating the dependencies.
- A generator for all project files. There is a single file with sources, which is used to generate Makefiles and the project files for MSVC.
- Proper support for OSX universal binaries.
- Object files for non-MSVC compiles are also placed in separate directories, making is faster to switch between debug and release compiles and it does not touch the directory with the source files.
- Functionality to make a bundle of all needed files for for example a nightly or distribution of a binary with all needed GRFs and language files.
Note: as this merge moves almost all files, it is recommended to make a backup of your working copy before updating your working copy.
