Bug 16190 enabled the indexer daemon by default for package installations.
This means that it is no longer necessary to set up koha-rebuild-zebra as
a cron job. This patch comments it out, so that people who might run into
bug 16814 can easily activate the cronjob again after de-activating the
indexer daemon.
To test:
Just read the diff and check that it makes sense.

Short:
Launch an indexing daemon (rebuild_zebra.pl -daemon) process for each
enabled instance. Enabling/disabling the use of the indexer is handled
by global configuration variables in /etc/default/koha-common.
Also provides command line tools to manage the running indexer daemons
for your instances.
Long:
Using an indexing daemon avoids launching a new interpreter each time
the cron triggers the indexing, and also allows sub-minute incremental
reindexing, a requirement from our librarians.[1]
Using the indexer daemon could remain "experimental" until it gets more
testing; so is disabled by default initially. To enable the use of the
indexer the user has to tweak the /etc/default/koha-common config file.
Specifically the USE_INDEXER_DAEMON variable, which is clearly explained
in the file.
Frecquency defaults to 5 sec, and can be changed by tweaking the
/etc/default/koha-common config file too.
This patch uses rebuild_zebra.pl in daemon mode, but it is crafted to
allow changing the indexing daemon and passing specific option switches
it might need.

This adds a -q option to koha-rebuild-zebra that prevents it outputting
help if no instances are provided on the command line. This means that
if you've just installed the package, you won't get messages from cron
telling you how to use the script.
Test plan:
* install koha-common 3.12 or master onto a system with no enabled
instances.
* note that you or the sysadmin will start getting emails every 5
minutes.
* replace /etc/cron.d/koha-common and /usr/sbin/koha-rebuild-zebra with
the versions from this patch.
* note that the emails stop flowing.

"sudo koha-rebuild-zebra -q" gives no output, as expected.
Followed the test plan, all looks good.

By default the packages now set up the cron jobs to handle things like
overdues and email etc. By default, email is off, 'koha-email-enable'
and 'koha-email-disable' can manage this.
