Initial support for a persistent scheduler, to support pausing and resuming
...
crawls.
* requests are serialized (using marshal by default) and stored on disk, using
one queue per priority
* request priorities must be integers now
* breadh-first and depth-first crawling orders can now be configured
through a new DEPTH_PRIORITY setting (see doc). backwards compatilibty with
SCHEDULER_ORDER was kept.
* requests that can't be serialized (for example, non serializable callbacks)
are always kept in memory queues
* adapted crawl spider to work with persitent scheduler

Big downloader refactoring to support real concurrency limits per domain/ip,
...
instead of global limits per spider which were a bit useless.
This removes the setting CONCURRENT_REQUESTS_PER_SPIDER and adds thre new
settings:
* CONCURRENT_REQUESTS
* CONCURRENT_REQUESTS_PER_DOMAIN
* CONCURRENT_REQUESTS_PER_IP (overrides per domain)
The AutoThrottle extension had to be disabled, but will be ported and
re-enabled soon.

Changed default representation of items to pretty-printed dicts. This improves
...
default logging by making log more readable in the default case, for both Scraped and Dropped lines.
Projects can still customize how items are represented by overriding the item's __str__ method, as usual.

* original item_passed signal was renamed to item_scraped

* old log lines "Passed Item..." renamed to "Scraped Item..."
