hydra-evaluator improvements
* The "Jobset" page now shows when evaluations are in progress (rather
  than just pending).

* Restored the ability to do a single evaluation from the command line
  by doing "hydra-evaluator <project> <jobset>".

* Fix some consistency issues between jobset status in PostgreSQL and
  in hydra-evaluator. In particular, "lastCheckedTime" was never
  updated internally.

hydra-evaluator: Don't use the "timeout" command
"timeout" does not propagate PR_SET_PDEATHSIG, so it prevents
hydra-eval-jobset from being killed when hydra-evaluator quits.

Move most of AddBuilds to hydra-eval-jobset
Having this stuff in a separate module is a remnant of the time when
hydra-server could add builds to the queue directly. This is no longer
the case.

a12e9478e7 When manually scheduling an eval, force re-instantiation of store derivations
Without this, if (failed or aborted) derivations have been
garbage-collected, there is no way to restart them, which is very
annoying. Now we set a forceEval flag in the jobset to cause it to be
re-evaluated even if none of the inputs have changed.

e0b2921ff2 Concurrent hydra-evaluator
This rewrites the top-level loop of hydra-evaluator in C++. The Perl
stuff is moved into hydra-eval-jobset. (Rewriting the entire evaluator
would be nice but is a bit too much work.) The new version has some
advantages:

* It can run multiple jobset evaluations in parallel.

* It uses PostgreSQL notifications so it doesn't have to poll the
  database. So if a jobset is triggered via the web interface or from
  a GitHub / Bitbucket webhook, evaluation of the jobset will start
  almost instantaneously (assuming the evaluator is not at its
  concurrency limit).

* It imposes a timeout on evaluations. So if e.g. hydra-eval-jobset
  hangs connecting to a Mercurial server, it will eventually be
  killed.
