This patch adds checks for the master role and daemonize support to
ganeti-masterd.

The patch modifies the startup/shutdown of the server because:
  - we want bind()/listen() to the master socket to occur before forking
    so that we can return a correct exit code and write messages to
    stderr
  - but we want thread startup to occur after fork(), otherwise python
    threading gets confused

The patch also has some small cleanups:
  - remove the unix socket after closing it, so we don't need to remove
    it manually
  - instead of just telling the threads to terminate via the new_queue,
    we also join() them so that the logs show what thread clinging to
    life
  - the daemon logs to its own logfile now
  - there is command line parameter support :)
