Worker configuration!

etc/workers.conf now contains a list of all the workers, grouped by functionality, and some basic documentation for the most commonly used ones.

Should make it easier the next time anyone has to test crossposting/importing/notifications, etc.

Feel free to adjust further as required, or if you discover that doing something needs a worker that isn't listed!

Hmm so I'm guessing all the manual workers always need just the one, yeah?

Some of them will work with more than one because of the locking mechanism. I could probably come up with a pathological case where you had so many users in so many clusters that needed birthday notifications every day that one worker on one server just wouldn't cut it, but that seems pretty unlikely.
