Remove the use of relative paths. A header at foo/bar.h could be included by
files under foo/ with "bar.h", but would be included everywhere else as
"foo/bar.h". Adjust so that every include references such a header with the
latter form.

For files that required flow.h, and only got it through actorcompiler.h,
their version of flow.h would have the actorcompiler #defines defined.
Then, if it included a STL/boost file, the same breakage would result.
This needs to not happen, so the include of flow.h in actorcompiler.h
was removed.
This introduces a new rule in our codebase, that any file that #includes
actorcompiler.h needs to do it as the last #include, and it needs to
then #include unactorcompiler.h at the end of the file.
The point of this is that it prevents our actorcompiler.h #defines from
leaking into boost or the c++ standard library. Both of these start
throwing errors if you s/state// their code, which `#define state `
effectively does.
This takes advantage of the new actorcompiler functionality to avoid
having duplicate definitions of `Void _` when trying to feed the
un-actorompiled source through clang.
self-moves are frowned upon in C++, and in our code this generally happens from
calls to swap as part of trying to implement a "unordered erase" function via
swap-to-the-end-and-pop_back. For convenience, a swapAndPop() function is now
offered that performs this, while disallowing self-moves.

Simulation identified the fact that we can violate the
VersionStamps-are-always-increasing promise via the following series of events:
1. On proxy 0, dumpData adds commit requests to proxy 0's commit promise stream
2. To any proxy, a client submits the first transaction of abortBackup, which stops further dumpData calls on proxy 0.
3. To any proxy that is not proxy 0, submit a transaction that checks if it needs to upgrade the destination version.
4. The transaction from (3) is committed
5. Transactions from (1) are committed
This is possible because the dumpData transactions have no read conflict
ranges, and thus it's impossible to make them abort due to "conflicting"
transactions. There's also no promise that if client C sends a commit to proxy
A, and later a client D sends a commit to proxy B, that B must log its commit
after A. (We only promise that if C is told it was committed before D is told
it was committed, then A committed before B.)
There was a failed attempt to fix this problem. We tried to add read conflict
ranges to dumpData transactions so that they could be aborted by "conflicting"
transactions. However, this failed because this now means that dumpData
transactions require conflict resolution, and the stale read version that they
use can cause them to be aborted with a transaction_too_old error.
(Transactions that don't have read conflict ranges will never return
transaction_too_old, because with no reads, the read snapshot version is
effectively meaningless.) This was never previously possible, so the existing
code doesn't retry commits, and to make things more complicated, the dumpData
commits must be applied in order. This would require either adding
dependencies to transactions (if A is going to commit then B must also be/have
committed), which would be complicated, or submitting transactions with a fixed
read version, and replaying the failed commits with a higher read version once
we get a transaction_too_old error, which would unacceptably slow down the
maximum throughput of dumpData.
Thus, we've instead elected to add a special transaction option that bypasses
proxy load balancing for commits, and always commits against proxy 0. We can
know for certain that after the transaction from (2) is committed, all of the
dumpData transactions that will be committed have been added to the commit
promise stream on proxy 0. Thus, if we enqueue another transaction against
proxy 0, we can know that it will be placed into the promise stream after all
of the dumpData transactions, thus providing the semantics that we require: no
dumpData transaction can commit after the destination version upgrade
transaction.
