David Wilson a3b747af1b issue #186: add PushFileService
This is like FileService but blocks until the file is pushed by a parent
context, with deduplicating behaviour at each level in the hierarchy. It
does not stream large files, so it is only suitable for small files like
Python modules.

Additionally add SerializedInvoker for use with PushFileService, which
ensures all method calls to a single service occur in sequence.

David Wilson 3613162bc0 ansible: enable forking when requested and for async jobs.
Closes #105.
References #155.

mitogen/service.py:
    Refactor services to support individually exposed methods with
    different security policies for each method.

    - @mitogen.service.expose() to expose a method and set its policy
    - @mitogen.service.arg_spec() to validate input.
    - Require basic service message format to be a tuple of
      `(method, kwargs)`, where kwargs is always a dict.
    - Update DeduplicatingService to match the new scheme.

ansible_mitogen/connection.py:
    - Rename 'method' to 'method_name' to disambiguate it from the
      service.call()'s method= argument.

ansible_mitogen/planner.py:
    - Generate an ID for every job, sync or not, and fetch job results
      from JobResultService rather than via the initiating function
      call's return value.
    - Planner subclasses now get to select whether their Runner should
      run in a forked process. The base implementation requests this if
      the 'mitogen_isolation_mode=fork' task variable is present.

ansible_mitogen/runner.py:
    Teach runners to deliver their result via JobResultService executing
    in their indirect parent mux process.

ansible_mitogen/plugins/actions/mitogen_async_status.py:
    Split the implementation up into methods, and more compatibly
    emulate Ansible's existing output.

ansible_mitogen/process.py:
    Mux processes now host JobResultService.

ansible_mitogen/services.py:
    Update existing services to the new mitogen.service scheme, and
    implement JobResultService:

    * listen() method for synchronous jobs. planner.invoke() registers a
      Sender with the service prior to invoking the job, then sleeps
      waiting for the service to write the job result to the
      corresponding Receiver.

    * Non-blocking get() method for implementing mitogen_async_status
      action.

    * Child-accessible push() method for delivering task results.

ansible_mitogen/target.py:
    New helpers for spawning a virginal subprocess on startup, from
    which asynchronous and mitogen_task_isolation=fork jobs are forked.
    Necessary to avoid a task inheriting potentially
    polluted/monkey-patched parent environment, since remaining jobs
    continue to run in the original child process.

docs/ansible.rst:
    Add/merge/remove some behaviours/risks.

tests/ansible/integration:
    New tests for forking/async.
