Worker configuration!

[fu]

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!

Nice! I vaguely remember there being some workers that should only have one instance running, that would be a good place to document those if they still exist.

Is there anything else one needs to do to be able to make the shop work? It won't let me buy anything (I'm talking about step 1: putting something in the cart).

For the record, and in case anybody has the same issue, workers never worked for me because I didn't have my TheSchwartz database set up as my hack was too old and I didn't know I should do this. Sophie had me run this:

$LJHOME/bin/ljdb < /usr/share/doc/libtheschwartz-perl/schema.sql

then restart apache and workers. It wouldn't work otherwise.
