Reworked mac gui to not lock up upon launch
Previously, once the node itself was launched, the UI event loop was no longer
running. This meant that the app would sit around seemingly 'wedged' and being
reported as 'Not Responding' by the os.
This chnages that by actually implementing a wxPython gui which is left running
while the reactor, and the node within it, is launched in another thread.
Beyond 'quit' -> reactor.stop, there are no interactions between the threads.
The ui provides 'open web root' and 'open account page' actions, both in the
file menu, and in the (right click) dock icon menu.
Something weird in the handling of wxpython's per-frame menubar stuff seems to
mean that the menu bar only displays the file menu and about etc (i.e. the items
from the wx menubar) if the focus changes from and back to the app while the
frame the menubar belongs to is displayed. Hence a splash frame comes up at
startup to provide an opportunity.
It also seems that, in the case that the file menu is not available, that one
can induce it to reappear by choosing 'about' from the dock menu, and then
closing the about window.

fix build breakage caused by auto_deps setuptools stuff
zooko recently added a runtime check, via setuptools, that specific versions of various

however exe and app builds run with collected egg contents, not linked against entire

add mac native build
This patch adds support for a mac native build.
At the moment it's a fairly simple .app - i.e. so simple as to be unacceptable
for a shipping product, but ok for testing and experiment at this point.
notably once launched, the app's ui does not respond at all, although its dock
icon does allow it to be force-quit.
this produces a single .app bundle, which when run will look for a node basedir
in ~/.tahoe. If one is not found, one will be created in ~/Library/Application
Support/Allmydata Tahoe, and that will be symlinked to ~/.tahoe
if the basedir is lacking basic config (introducer.furl and root_dir.cap) then
the wx config wizard will be launched to log into an account and to set up
those files.
if a webport file is not found, the default value of 8123 will be written into
it.
once the node has started running, a webbrowser will be opened to the webish
interface at the users root_dir
note that, once configured, the node runs as the main thread of the .app,
no daemonisation is done, twistd is not involved.
the binary itself, from within the .app bundle, i.e.
"Allmydata Tahoe.app/Contents/MacOS/Allmydata Tahoe"
can be used from the command line and functions as the 'tahoe' executable
would in a unix environment, with one exception - when launched with no args
it triggers the default behaviour of running a node, and if necessary config
wizard, as if the user had launched the .app
one other gotcha to be aware of is that symlinking to this binary from some
other place in ones $PATH will most likely not work. when I tried this,
something - wx I believe - exploded, since it seems to use argv[0] to figure
out where necessary libraries reside and fails if argv[0] isn't in the .app
bundle. it's pretty easy to set up a script a la
#!/bin/bash

tweak webish to use resource_filename to find css and html files
using sibpath to find web template files relative to source code is functional
when running from source environments, but not especially flexible when running
from bundled built environments. the more 'orthodox' mechanism, pkg_resources,
in theory at least, knows how to find resource files in various environments.
this makes the 'web' directory in allmydata into an actual allmydata.web module
(since pkg_resources looks for files relative to a named module, and that module
must be importable) and uses pkg_resources.resource_filename to find the files
therein.
setup: make find_trial self-contained so that we don't have a bootstrapping problem -- if allmydata can't be imported we still want to be able to run find_trial
setup: require specific versions of dependencies, both at run-time (if pkg_resources is available) and at build-time, and make there be only once place where we specify those versions
Using pkg_resources.require() like this also apparently allows people to install multiple different versions of packages on their system and tahoe (if pkg_resources is available to it) will import the version of the package that it requires. I haven't tested this feature.
setup: for reasons that I do not understand "show-eggspath" gives me a GNUmake error unless I move it down a couple of stanzas (until after the stanza that sets PYTHONPATH)
setup: add a setup.cfg file which instructs setuptools to install all eggs in unzipped form and to always copy them into the target directory (even if they are already installed somewhere else on the path that setuptools searches, which includes the CWD)

update confwiz to include account creation ui
this changes the confwiz so that hitting the 'create account' button, rather than
opening a webbrowser to the register page, instead provides a simple account creation

also added a 'connecting...' message so the user sees a response when they hit
login or create account, since the getBasedir call can sometimes take up to ~5min
(which is unacceptable for a user product, but this at least somewhat ameliorates
the issue of the ui locking up and not giving the user any feedback while it's
happening)

setup: simplify the setup by removing the "tahoe dependencies" fake project
Now we use "./setup.py develop" to ensure that changes to our source code are immediately used without requiring a "make" step. This simplification will hopefully pave the way for easier py2exe and py2app, solving the "Unit tests test the installed version" bug (#145), and perhaps also #164 and #176.
This patch also conditionalizes the use of setuptools_darcs on the absence of a PKG-INFO file, which is part of fixing #263.

offloaded: fix failure in unit test on windows
in trying to test my fix for the failure of the offloaded unit test on windows
(by closing the reader before unlinking the encoding file - which, perhaps
disturbingly doesn't actually make a difference in my windows environment)
I was unable too because the unit test failed every time with a connection lost
error.
after much more time than I'd like to admit it took, I eventually managed to
track that down to a part of the unit test which is supposed to be be dropping
a connection. it looks like the exceptions that get thrown on unix, or at
least all the specific environments brian tested in, for that dropped
connection are different from what is thrown on my box (which is running py2.4
and twisted 2.4.0, for reference) adding ConnectionLost to the list of
expected exceptions makes the test pass.
though curiously still my test logs a NotEnoughWritersError error, and I'm not
currently able to fathom why that exception isn't leading to any overall
failure of the unit test itself.
for general interest, a large part of the time spent trying to track this down
was lost to the state of logging. I added a whole bunch of logging to try
and track down where the tests were failing, but then spent a bunch of time
searching in vain for that log output. as far as I can tell at this point
the unit tests are themselves logging to foolscap's log module, but that isn't
being directed anywhere, so all the test's logging is being black holed.
