Reverts 49736b3a, large file copies can't avoid the RTT.
The parent stack must be blocked while FileService progresses, as unlike
the small file path, it does not make a snapshot of the (possibly
temporary) file passed by the action plug-in. So we need to keep that
file alive while the service runs.
Add a new integration test and a new soak test to cover both.
* Always enable the faulthandler module in the top-level process if it
is available.
* Make MITOGEN_DUMP_THREAD_STACKS interval configurable, to better
handle larger runs.
* Add docs subsection on diagnosing hangs.

Without this, an invocation like:
sudo ansible-playbook foo.yml
Where foo.yml uses setns, could inherit the HOME environment variable
from the external non-root user, which broke /usr/bin/mysql_upgrade and
plenty more.
Calls to connect.put_file() where the file is sufficiently small enough
to fit in a single RPC proceed without waiting for an RPC response. If
the write fails the target context will log an exception, and any
subsequent step depending on the written file will fail.
I verified every built-in action plugin for file transfer calls, and
they all depend on the transferred file in the following step, so this
should be safe.
Reduces template/copy actions to 2-RTT, loop-20-templates.yml runtime
reduced from 30 seconds to 10 seconds over a 250ms link compared to
v0.2.2, and from 123 seconds compared to vanilla with pipelining
enabled.
