email plugin: Limit the `MaxConns' option by a hardcoded value.
Because typos (and ``typos'', i. e. dumb users) happen, it's better to not
allow INT_MAX connections. The problem is that on 32bit machines this would
a) create 2147483648 threads
b) allocate (at least) 512 GBytes of memory
which would result in certain death of either the daemon or the system.
This patch limits the number of connections (and thus threads and allocated
memory) to 16384, which ought to be enough for most people. Those, who need
more connections (and can accomplish this, even though there are quite narrow
OS limits) will need to recompile themselves.

email plugin: Made socket settings configurable.
Added config file support to the email plugin.
The following options are available:
* "SocketGroup <group name>"
Set the group the UNIX socket belongs to to <group name>.
* "SocketPerms <perms>"
Set the permissions of the UNIX socket to <perms>. No validation is done.
The user has to make sure reasonable values are given.
* "MaxConns <conns>"
The maximum number of concurrent connections is set to <conns>.
<perms> and <conns> may be given as decimal (no prefix), octal (prefix "0") or
sedecimal (a.k.a. hexadecimal, prefix "0x") values.

email plugin: Make it possible to build the plugin write-only.
So far the plugin simply imported `pthread.h'. If this headerfile (or the
library for that case) was not present, building the plugin would fail. This
patch makes `libpthread' a soft dependency, i. e. it's only necessary if you
want to read from the socket. Without `libpthread' being available the plugin
can still be used in server processes.

New plugin "email" to collectd ham, spam, ... statistics
This plugin collects email count and size for each type (e.g. ham, spam,
virus, ...) of emails, spam score values and the count of successful spam
checks (e.g. BAYES_99, SUBJECT_DRUG_GAP_C, ...).
These information are provided by external programs which communicate with the
plugin thru a UNIX socket and a simple line-based protocol:
/* e-mail type (e.g. ham, spam, virus, ...) and size */
e:<type>:<bytes>
/* spam score */
s:<value>
/* successful spam checks */
c:<type1>[,<type2>,...]
At most MAX_CONNS (currently set to 5) clients can connect to the plugin
simultaneously. Each connection is handled by a separate thread. Any input
line is limited to 256 characters (including the newline character) which
ought to be enough for anybody[tm] by definition. "c"-lines have to be split
up if they grow longer.
