Commit 2117 changed _AssembleInstanceDisks to correctly parse the
failure status of the new RpcResult structure, but it didn't fix the
storing of only the result payload. Since RpcResult is not JSON
serializable, LUActivateInstanceDisks is failing.

Previously, we set the permissions only after writing the key. This
gave other users on the system a small window during which they could
read the key.

Passwords are stored in "$localstatedir/lib/ganeti/rapi_users". User
options specify the access permissions of a user (see docstring for
ganeti.http.ReadPasswordFile), for which only "write" is supported
to grant write access. Every other user has read-only access.

Lines in the password file are of the following format:

  <username> <password> [options]

Fields are separated by whitespace. Username and password are
mandatory, options are optional and separated by comma (",").
Empty lines and comments ("#") are ignored.

Reducing the actual number of RPC calls will come in another patch.

With a large job queue, auto-archiving jobs can take a very long time,
causing timeouts on the luxi RPC layer. With this change, auto-
archive returns after half of the RPC timeout has passed. The user
will see how many jobs are left unchecked.

Reviewed-by: ultrotter

This is done by passing the job object to _ArchiveJobUnlocked instead
of only the job ID. Also return whether job was actually archived.

As it turned out, having many files in a single directory can be
very painful. With this patch, only 10'000 files are stored in a
directory for the job queue archive. With 10'000 directries, this
allows for up to 100 million jobs be archived without having large
numbers of files in a single directories. Not that it is realistic,
anyway.

Unfortunately, os.makedirs in Python 2.4 is not safe against multiple
processes creating the same directory tree at the same time. This is
only fixed in Python 2.5 and up. Adding more checks in our code doesn't
make it any better.

Sometimes the proc filesystem doesn't reflect the current status of
a process. By calling waitpid(), we make sure to get the current
information, at least for child processes. The timeout is still
kept for child processes to make sure the proc filesystem is updated.
