Viewer Compiler Updates
Internal build update to VS2017 and Boost.Fiber. Because we had to rebuild all the component autobuild packages for the compiler upgrade, the project also subsumed the problem of migrating all our autobuild packages to git source repositories.
No user facing changes.

Maintenance - Arrack
Arrack is a distilled alcoholic drink typically produced in the Indian subcontinent and Southeast Asia, made from the fermented sap of coconut flowers or sugarcane, and also with grain (e.g. red rice) or fruit depending upon the country of origin. It is sometimes spelled arak, or simply referred to as ‘rack or ‘rak. It is not to be confused with the anise-flavored distilled spirit called Arak or Araq.
There are two primary styles of Arrack that are very different from one another: Batavia Arrack is often clear in color but has a flavor profile more similar to dark rum, with a distinctive “funk” or “hogo” imparted to it from fermented red rice. Ceylon Arrack, by contrast, is a more refined and subtle spirit. It has hints of Cognac and rum character and a wealth of delicate floral notes. Both styles are also made “in house” by local citizenry and can be more akin to moonshine in their presentation.

Maintenance - Bormotukha
Bormotukha (Бормотуха) (Der. “bormotat’”, to mutter) is a surrogate alcoholic drink with toxic side effects; inexpensive (usually fortified, 15-22% ABV) low quality grape or fruit/berry wine made from cheap wine material, sugar, ethyl alcohol, water and artificial dyes. The name was also used for any cheap types of port wine and vermouth. Bormotukha had been used exclusively to achieve the alcoholic intoxication so its taste did not play an important role.
It should be noted that in the former USSR there was no alcohol produced under the brand name “Bormotukha”. The name “Bormotukha” is a collective noun and slang.
Crash Fixes! Seriously, just look at that list! Maintenance viewers are often where we bundle up lots of crash fixes and this is certainly no exception.
Improvements Cleaning up some old certificates and improving SSL verifications. Added some minor tweaks to Media playback behaviors. Additional inventory refinements. Default versus default, yes really. Layout and spacing refinement for international language support.
