This module imports the core of a distributed work queue. A "controller" process
will poll the job queue for work and dispatch it to a suitable "worker" process
based on the load of each worker. Controller and worker communicate with each
other via AMP. Work is submitted to the job queue by the workers or the
controller by storing an L{JobItem}/L{WorkItem} in the database.

The key classes in this module are:

In the master process:
    L{ControllerQueue} - the L{Service} that the controller process has to run to process jobs.
    L{ConnectionFromWorker} - an AMP protocol handler for connections from a worker process.
    L{WorkerConnectionPool} - the list of all worker connections the controller knows about.

In the worker process:
    L{ConnectionFromController} - an AMP protocol handler for connections from a controller process.
    L{WorkerFactory} - factory for the worker process to use to initiate connections to the controller.
