First steps to parsing RSS items as activities. RSS feeds don't seem
to have enough data to make good remote profiles, but this may work
with some "hints".
* Subscription::start was sometimes passing users instead of profiles to hooks, which broke OStatus subscription notifications; now normalizing to profiles for processing.
* H-card parsing would trigger a lot of PHP warnings and notices in hKit. Now suppressing warnings and notices for the duration of the call to keep them out of output when display_errors is on.
* H-card parsing would trigger a PHP fatal error if the source page was not well-formed XML and Tidy was not present on the system. Switched normalization to use the PHP DOM module which is always present, as we have no need for Tidy's extra features here.
* Trying to fetch avatars from Google profiles failed and triggered a PHP warning due to the relative URL not being resolved during h-card parsing. Now passing profile page URL into hKit by sneaking a <base> tag in while we normalize the HTML source.
* Profile pages without a "Link" header could trigger PHP notices due to a bad NULL -> array(NULL) conversion in LinkHeader::getLink(). Now checking that there was a return value before converting single return value into array.
For instance this was throwing an exception for DB_DataObject::staticGet when there's no match... definitely not what we want when all our code expects to get a nice null.

Revert "Don't attempt to retrieve the current user from the DB while processing a DB error"
This reverts commit 68347691b0.
Revert "Use PHP exceptions for PEAR error handling."
This reverts commit d8212977ce.
While deletion is in progress, the account is locked with the 'deleted' role, which disables all actions with rights control.
Todo:
* Pretty up the notice on the profile page about the pending delete. Show status?
* Possibly more thorough account disabling, such as disallowing all use for login and access.
* Improve error recovery; worst case is that an account gets left locked in 'deleted' state but the queue jobs have gotten dropped out. This would leave the username in use and any undeleted notices in place.
Under MySQL, new tables will be created as InnoDB with UTF-8 (utf8/utf8_bin) same as core tables.
Existing plugin tables will have table engine and default charset/collation updated, and string columns will have charset updated, at checkschema time.
Switched from 'DESCRIBE' to INFORMATION_SCHEMA for pulling column information in order to get charset. A second hit to INFORMATION_SCHEMA is also needed to get table properties.
Indices were only being created at table creation time, which ain't so hot. Now also adding/dropping indices when they change.
Fixed up some schema defs in OStatus plugin that were a bit flaky, causing extra alter tables to be run.
TODO: Generalize this infrastructure a bit more up to base schema & pg schema classes.
I think this is a bug in Youtube's web server (sending chunked encoding of an empty body with a HEAD response, leaving the connection out of sync when it doesn't attempt to read a body) but the HTTP_Request2 library may need to be adjusted to watch out for that.
Keeps stray daemon subprocesses from floating around when we kill the parents via a signal!
Accomplished by opening a bidirectional pipe in the parent process; the children close out the writer end and keep the reader in their open sockets list. When the parent dies, the children see that the socket's been closed out and can perform an orderly shutdown.
The final whitespace should be dropped from the source messages after we've stabilized; trailing space is pretty unreliable to keep through translation tools and should be avoided. Use separator strings outside the messages!
OStatus plugin overrides these to allow using webfinger (user@example.com), profile URL (http://example.com/user) and bare profile URL (example.com/user) as arguments.
