Don't parse all the _changes feed; work out update_seq from the DB info,
so we never request the whole feed, which is doom when the whole feed
is large.

Split desktopcouch-service threads into to discrete processes, since they do not depend on each other, and because multithreading breaks with recent changes to libraries. (LP: #524566, #530605)

For places we use DBus function calls, pull the DBus glib mainloop setting close to the place we assign the mainloop to the twisted reactor.

Making desktopcouch more robusts when dealing with mergeable lists.
If a key is still in private application annotation for a certain application but it has been removed from it's root_list the mergeable list code traces back with a key error.

Since replication takes a long time (and we are not clever enough yet to replicate asynchronously), all replication is pushed into a subthread so that we don't block DBus server calls on getPort and such.

However, for some GUI libraries, GUI functions are not allowed to be outside the main execution thread. Violating that causes undefined behavior.

We need access to the keyring data in replication, and 'gnomekeyring' may try to display an alert to the user, using GUI functions. Doing so from inside the replication thread, outside the main thread, can cause SEGV crashes in deep and mysterious parts of Python and libraries it uses.

Now, add a wrapper for those functions that can call GUI functions. First test what environment we're in and if in a subthread, ask the twisted reactor to run the target function in the main execution thread and return the values down to the subthread.

RecordDict.items() did not return properly wrapped data.

This in turn exposed an IMO more serious bug in CouchDatabaseBase.put_records_batch: that sends Record objects to python-couchdb instead of properly unwrapped dicts (i.e. Record._data). Fixed that bug as well.

Log files can grow large. Expire old ones when we start up and start fresh.

Fix a missed rename of simplejson->json

Bump version number.

Use the built in json module in python2.6 when the simplejson module is not available.

Add with_auth and with_keyring arguments to Context.

If with_auth is False then a couch started in the created context won't require or accept credentials. This makes it not really a desktopcouch, but the facilities for starting and stopping couchdb with a restricted configuration can be hugely useful to other projects to use in e.g. test suites.

If with_keyring is False then the credentials won't be read from or stored to gnome-keyring, so that if it is a non-default context (e.g. in a testsuite) it doesn't intefere with the user's desktopcouch, as gnome-keyring is the only global object that Context interacts with.

Use a mock keyring during the tests to isolate them from the user more.
