This PR includes PR#2160, which should be approved and merged first.

This PR fixes Issue #2148 - loadups fail on WSL1 with Xvnc server error.

Root cause of 2148 is that certain Medley sessions in loadups run very quickly - less than 2 seconds. This causes the medley
script (called from loadup) to improperly detect an Xvnc server error. Fixed by adding a command line flag (--automation) that forces the medley script to skip the check for Xvnc server errors. Changed loadup script to call medley with this flag set.

Also add a command line flag to loadup (--forcevnc) that forces loadup to use vnc even on WSL2. This is intended for testing purposes only. So this PR can be tested on WSL2 with this flag.

…ered loadup so that the sysouts are copied to loadups before loadup-aux and loadup-db are run, and that the product of loadup-aux are copied to loadups before loadup-db is run -- all to make sure that the right prerequisites are available in loadups when needed. Also forced a run of loadup-aux if full.sysout is newer than exports.all when -db is specified.
