[Opensim-dev] Proposal: Enable ossl functions by defaul

A few fine tuning things on this...

a) Now that the osslEnable.ini file is available.. the existing 
commented out OSSL related parameters and examples ought to be 
removed from OpenSim.ini.example.  A comment might be retained there 
to point at the config-includes/osslEnable.ini file as the place to 
make any changes you wish.

b) Mister Blue added an osCheckODE()function to allow scripts to 
check if the legacy Phsyics engine is in use and which does not 
require OSSL functions to be enabled.  However, it has been added to 
osslEnable.ini indicating it can be turned on or off which defeats 
the objects of a script writer knowing it is present.  I think this 
will lead to confusion.  It should be removed from 
osslEnable.ini.  But for documentation a comment could be added in a 
new section labelled as "None and Always Available".  For clarity the 
comment showing each such function (only one at present?) should not 
have Allow_ in the front of its name.

   ; ThreatLevel  None and Always Available
   ; OSSL functions which are available whether or not AllowOSFunctions = true

   ; osCheckODE

   ;  ThreatLevel  None
   ...

c) A tiny improvement to one line in osslEnable.ini ... keep things 
in the order of the name of this parameter. O(wner), G(roup)

    ; osslParcelOG = "PARCEL_OWNER,PARCEL_GROUP_MEMBER"
