When drafting the time handling framework some years ago,
I foresaw the possible danger of mixing up numbers relating
to fractional seconds, with other plain numbers intended as
frame counts or as micro ticks. Thus I deliberately picked
an incompatible integer type for FSecs = boost::rational<long>
However, using long is problematic in itself, since its actual
bit length is not fixed, and especially on 32bit platforms long
is quite surprisingly defined to be the same as int.
However, meanwhile, using the new C++ features, I have blocked
pretty much any possible implicit conversion path, requiring
explicit conversions in the relevant ctor invocations. So,
after weighting in the alternatives, FSecs is now defined
as boost::rational<int64_t>.
Mostly, std::regexp can be used as a drop-in replacement.
Note: unfortunately ECMA regexps do not support lookbehind assertions.
This lookbehind is necesary here because we want to allow parsing values
from strings with additional content, which means we need explicitly to
exclude mismatches due to invalid syntax.
We can work around that issue like "either line start, or *not* one of these characters.
Alternatively we could consider to make the match more rigid,
i.e we would require the string to conain *only* the timecode spec to be parsed.
effectively we rely in the micro tick timescale promoted by libGAVL,
but it seems indicated to introduce our own constant definition.
And also clarify some comments and tests.
(this changeset does not change any values or functionality)
reason is, only files with a @file comment will be processed
with further documentation commands. For this reason, our Doxygen
documentation is lacking a lot of entries.

the object VTable is typically emitted when the compiler
encounters the first non-static non-inline function of
the class or a derived class.
Sometimes this happens within the wrong library and so
the compiler needs a nudge to emit those infrastructure functions.
But in most cases this works out of the box and need no further
magic incanctations, which might have a downside.
Especially because also a non-inline dtor does incur a call overhead,
whereas an inline dtor can be trivially elided.
first integration of the various components
developed thus far; design still needs some
improvements, esp. regarding the effectiveFramerate
Note NTSC-drop-frame not yet supported...
