Fix -Wunused-result warning in ThreadPool::AddTask - #4958

Conversation
## Summary The finished-task checker in ThreadPool::AddTask calls shared_future::get() only to rethrow task exceptions through Wait()/Stop(); the return value is already available via the returned future. For non-void tasks, get() is [[nodiscard]], which produced -Wunused-result warnings (e.g. for bool and std::optional<InitInfo> tasks). Discard the value explicitly with a (void) cast, matching the existing idiom in undistorters.cc. Apply the same discard to the NoArgReturn and ArgReturn tests, and add WaitPropagatesExceptionWithReturnValue to cover exception propagation from a value-returning task. ## Tests - Rebuilt undistorters.cc and incremental_mapper_impl.cc with no -Wunused-result warnings. - colmap_util_threading_test: 35 tests passed, including the new test.

## Change Integrate the upstream fix for an ignored return-value warning in task error collection. The checker still calls shared_future::get() to propagate failures; the explicit void cast discards only the returned value. Include the upstream regression for an exception from a value-returning task. ## Upstream commits - e6644e7 Fix -Wunused-result warning in ThreadPool::AddTask (colmap#4958) ## Validation - Linux threading suite: 45/45 passed, no skips or disabled tests, including WaitPropagatesExceptionWithReturnValue. - Incremental build: two threading translation units rebuilt; fresh test link against retained archives, with compiler, input and runtime-provider checks. Totally vibe coded

Integrate the upstream fix for an ignored return-value warning in task error collection. ## Change Keep calling `shared_future::get()` so task failures propagate, and explicitly discard only its returned value. The upstream regression submits a value-returning task that throws and checks that waiting reports the exception. ## Upstream commits - e6644e7 Fix -Wunused-result warning in ThreadPool::AddTask (colmap#4958) ## Validation The Linux threading suite passed 45 cases with no skips or disabled tests, including `WaitPropagatesExceptionWithReturnValue`. Two threading translation units were rebuilt and a fresh test link used retained archives with compiler, input and runtime-provider checks. AI disclosure: Totally vibe coded

Refresh the experimental alternative with fork main while retaining its previous head as a parent. The resulting tree is exactly main plus the isolated shared-current-cost-cache deletion: one CUDA file, +1/-25. ## Change Read the existing cost map directly during the ordered sampled-cost fold. Preserve current plane propagation, source packing, scheduling and fallback mathematics. The cache originates in custom a37c1c3, MVS: Reuse sampled current costs (GPU perf). The earlier alternative is retained through 8481f89; its original experiment was 8b1412f. Historical Fountain11 photo+geometry at 3072 recorded 76.85 -> 78.82 seconds, one observation per arm, on the older revision. Retain this inconclusive/adverse observation with its earlier revision; current performance has not been measured. No performance experiment was reopened. ## Validation - Exact candidate CUDA owner compiled with CUDA 13.2 for compute_86/sm_86. In a bounded retained-support context on RTX 3060, both matched targets passed all 13 selected cases: propagation, ordered source folding, checkpoint-HMM and paired-sweep preservation. - Four complete inputs and four outputs matched across executables: 8,492,128 bytes per arm. Maps were finite with positive depth and checked ordered graph IDs. Complete witnesses use checkpoint_hmm=false; separate checkpoint tests cover both settings without full cross-executable true-mode witnesses. - Direct owners, link maps and actual loaded providers were checked; managed jobs ended and released their bookings. Later host resize/warp changes have separate owner qualification. This is not a whole-branch build, reconstruction-quality, portability or current-performance result. ## Upstream commits carried forward - e52aa8e Move pycolmap macOS CI from macos-14 to macos-15 runner (colmap#4933) - 8007d1a Preserve float weight ordering in maximum spanning trees (colmap#4928) - dd84102 Bump pypa/gh-action-pypi-publish from 1.14.2 to 1.14.3 in /.github/workflows (colmap#4942) - 721e185 Add FlexGlue feature matcher (colmap#4908) - d0a411f FlexGlue: cache the dense features on the GPU (colmap#4915) - 105817b Hoist camera model dispatch per row in image warps (colmap#4935) - 27ffad4 Make benchmark translation-angle errors invariant to reconstruction scale (colmap#4932) - e8f3522 Resolve benchmark paths before changing subprocess directories (colmap#4931) - f664d5d Clamp visibility coordinates before unsigned conversion (colmap#4943) - 138119b Keep thin bitmap thumbnails nonempty (colmap#4927) - b16ed5f Count rig frame covisibility once per 3D point (colmap#4893) - 93dbbcb Add colmap-review agent skill for code review (colmap#4934) - 2a6f695 Fix sift_test build on MSVC without the GUI (colmap#4955) - 78cc729 Fix default prior_position_loss_scale to sqrt(chi2_95_3dof) (colmap#4936) - 8653c6b Estimate two-view relative rotation covariance (colmap#4950) - e1317dd FlexGlue: match keypoints in the resized descriptor input frame (colmap#4949) - 3db6eb0 Extract ConvertPosePriorsToENU and skip pose priors without position (colmap#4937) - 77cbe48 Store and estimate rotation covariances on PoseGraph (colmap#4951) - 30a1a81 Support covariance whitening in CeresRotationAverager (colmap#4952) - e6644e7 Fix -Wunused-result warning in ThreadPool::AddTask (colmap#4958) - 5b6da88 Clear descriptor-index results for empty queries (colmap#4960) - d1d92d9 Add COVARIANCE reweighting for Ceres rotation averaging (colmap#4953) - 761d90d Enable covariance-weighted rotation averaging in global pipelines (colmap#4823) - fdee2e1 Reuse the pose graph of GlobalPipeline in the component mappers (colmap#4912) AI disclosure: Totally vibe coded

Summary
The finished-task checker in ThreadPool::AddTask calls
shared_future::get() only to rethrow task exceptions through
Wait()/Stop(); the return value is already available via the returned
future. For non-void tasks, get() is [[nodiscard]], which produced
-Wunused-result warnings (e.g. for bool and std::optional
tasks). Discard the value explicitly with a (void) cast, matching the
existing idiom in undistorters.cc. Apply the same discard to the
NoArgReturn and ArgReturn tests, and add
WaitPropagatesExceptionWithReturnValue to cover exception propagation
from a value-returning task.
