Module for managing components (abstraction of process). It allows starting
them in given order, handling when they crash (what happens depends on kind
of component) and shutting down. It also handles the configuration of this.

Dependencies between them are not yet handled. It might turn out they are
needed, in that case they will be added sometime in future.

    This represents a single component. It has some defaults of behaviour,
    which should be reasonable for majority of ordinary components, but
    it might be inherited and modified for special-purpose components,
    like the core modules with different ways of starting up. Another
    way to tweak only the start of the component (eg. by providing some
    command line parameters) is to set _start_func function from within
    inherited class.

    The methods are marked if it is expected for them to be overridden.


    The component is in one of the three states:
    - Stopped - it is either not started yet or it was explicitly stopped.
      The component is created in this state (it must be asked to start
      explicitly).
    - Running - after start() was called, it started successfully and is
      now running.
    - Dead - it failed and can not be resurrected.

          * 'core' means the system can't run without it and it can't be
            safely restarted. If it does not start, the system is brought
            down. If it crashes, the system is turned off as well (with
            non-zero exit status).

            but it is vital part of the service (like auth server). If
            it fails to start or crashes in less than 10s after the first
            startup, the system is brought down. If it crashes later on,
            it is restarted.
          * 'dispensable' means the component should be running, but if it
            doesn't start or crashes for some reason, the system simply tries
            to restart it and keeps running.

            shut down at the end. If you specialize the class for a component
            that is shut down differently, it might be None.

           now.

    * `kind` - The kind of component, either of 'core', 'needed' and
      'dispensable'. This specifies what happens if the component fails.
      Defaults to despensable.
    * `address` - The address of the component on message bus. It is used
      to shut down the component. All special components currently either
      know their own address or don't need one and ignore it. The common
      components should provide this.
    * `params` - The command line parameters of the executable. Defaults
      to no parameters. It is currently unused.
    * `priority` - When starting the component, the components with higher
      priority are started before the ones with lower priority. If it is

        Currently implemented commands are:
        * start

        the component as well (the identifier from configuration). The 'start'
        one needs the 'spec' to be there, which is the configuration description
        of the component.
