      Move the bulk (or guts) of newuser and newproject from the web · 16aaa101

      interface to the backend. There are new scripts that can be called
      from the command line:
      
      	newuser xmlfile
      	newproj xmlfile
      
      They both run from small xmlfiles that are generated by the web
      interface from the form data. I also moved user verification to the
      backend so that we do not have duplicated email functions, but that
      was a small change.
      
      Upon error, the xmlfile is saved and sent to tbops so that we can
      rerun the command by hand, rather then force user to fill out form
      again. I also do a better job of putting the form back up intact when
      there are internal errors.
      
      If the user provides an initial public key, that is put into the xml
      file as well and addpubkey is called from newuser instead of the web
      interface. A more general change to addpukey is that it is now
      *always* called as "nobody". This script was a morass of confusion
      cause of having to call it as nobody before the user actually
      exists. In fact, another of my ongoing projects is to reduce the
      number of scripts called as a particular user, but thats a story for
      another day. Anyway, the script is always called as nobody, but we
      pass along the implied user in the environment so that it can do
      permission checks.
