[PATCH] Separate event handling daemon from ctdbd

[Amitay Isaacs]

Hi,

In the efforts to split the monolithic ctdb daemon into multiple smaller
processes, this is the first piece of the code that is separated as a new
daemon.  ctdb-eventd will be a long running daemon that is started from
ctdbd (similar to recovery daemon) and handles the job of running events.

This patch series following new abstractions:
- run_proc to execute an external binary and capture the output.
- sock_daemon a framework to writing daemons using unix domain sockets

The eventd code introduces the following new code:
- Eventd protocol and marshalling code
- Eventd implementation
- Client code to talk to eventd
- CTDB tool helper (ctdb_event)
- Tests to ensure the expected behaviour of eventd

The existing functionality related to handling events has been dropped from
ctdb daemon.

Since the patch series is large, here's the git reference:

Please review and push.

Amitay.
