Add XML-RPC interface and command line client

Introduce a new XML-RPC Patchwork interface inspired by the SOAP
interface from the old Patchwork.  The interface itself is fairly
lightweight and generic, and provides read-only access to a limited
subset of the Patchwork database, along with server-side search
and flexible filtering capabilities.

The command line client is modeled after the old one with some
additional filtering options.

The XML-RPC interface is disabled by default.  You can enable it
by setting ENABLE_XMLRPC = True in local_settings.py

This feature uses the django-xmlrpc package available from
http://django-xmlrpc.googlecode.com.
