Previous cleanups (mostly the removals of Python __future__ imports)
were done in a way that introduced leading newlines. Delete leading
newlines from all files, except static/assets/zulip-emoji/NOTICE,
which is a verbatim copy of the Apache 2.0 license.

Using sys.exit in a management command makes it impossible
to unit test the code in question. The correct approach to do the same
thing in Django management commands is to raise CommandError.
Followup of b570c0dafa
- For threaded workers:
Django's autoreloader catches SIGQUIT(3) to reload the program. If
a process being watched by autoreloader exits with status code 3,
reloader will restart the process. To reload, we send SIGUSR1(10)
signal from consumers to a handler in process_queue which then
exits with status code 3.
- For single worker per process:
Catch the SIGUSR1 and quit; supervisorctl will restart the worker
automatically.
Fixes#5512
While running queue processors multithreaded will limit the
performance available to very small systems, it's easy to fix that by
adding more RAM, and previously, Zulip didn't work on such systems at
all, so this is unambiguously an improvement there.
Fixes#32.
Fixes#34.
(Commit message expanded significantly by tabbott.)
This change drops the memory used for Python processes run by Zulip in
development from about 1GB to 300MB on my laptop.
On the front of safety, http://pika.readthedocs.org/en/latest/faq.html
explains "Pika does not have any notion of threading in the code. If
you want to use Pika with threading, make sure you have a Pika
connection per thread, created in that thread. It is not safe to share
one Pika connection across threads.". Since this code only connects
to rabbitmq inside the individual threads, I believe this should be
safe.
Progress towards #32.
