[Devel] For profile import, we now use Twisted

[Asheesh Laroia]

I just pushed and deployed the first usable version of the Twisted-based 
profile import code.

You can find it by getting the latest version from Gitorious, and then 
reading 'mysite/customs/profile_importer.py'. I'm trying to keep the new 
architecture fairly simple.

This is the stuff that powers the http://openhatch.org/+portfolio/editor/ 
page -- it's the stuff that automagically figures out what projects you 
have worked on, and puts them in your profile.

The new, Twisted-based architecture only supports importing from 
qa.debian.org and Github.com. Because of that, the old-style method of 
enqueuing background tasks is still around.

The code has a reasonable test suite.

I will write up more documentation in the next day or two. I'm going to 
really want help with moving some of the existing profile import code over 
to the Twisted-based architecture. I also want it to be pretty easy to 
write your own new profile import code.

Yours in sleepiness,
