18605b0c19 handling of real time start offset
decision: the base for any deadline calculations
is the expected real time corresponding to the grid origin.
This value is contained in the Timings record.

72e5557d1e locate the real time / nominal within engine::TimeAnchor
this clarifies the relation of TimeAnchor and Timings,
the latter act as a general spec and abstracted grid,
while the latter actually performs the conversion and
deadline checking

4ede0453be resolve the remaining liblumieracommon.so dependency problems
now this library doesn't refer to any symbols from
Proc-Layer anymore. Resolving these problems
highlighted IMHO a serious shortcomming of our
interface system, which hinders the building
of abstractions at interface level

3d628b6eee fix ill-guided linking of the DummyPlayer facade object type info
DummyPlayer is experimental code,
but actually we've established the convention
to linke the facade-proxies into common/interfaceproxy.cpp

384ee68129 allow simple query-for-pipe again (revert)
while refactoring, I thought it might be a good idea
only to use Query objects. But in this special case,
most often you'd just want to pass in a simple query
with a literal query string. So this convenience shortcut
indeed makes sense.

016a739a5c WIP back to the original problem: how to dispatch jobs...
brainstorming how to implement the job planning stage

the idea is to built on top of the IterExplorer,
but have the "stack" of re-evaluation integrated
into a custom type, which exploits the static
node network structure to avoid heap allocations

solution idea: again use a builder function?

ec659b7141 a better way to inject the Render-Engine Mock
