89619838b0 Remove weird SigListener class
The SigListener class was used to queue folders that we need to sync and
to receive "resync" and "abort" signals. It was undocumented and weird
and we had to pass "siglisteners" through the whole program.

Simply do away with it, and make 2 functions in the Account() class:
set_abort_event and get_abort_event which can be used to set and check
for such signals. This way we do not need to pass siglisteners all over
the place. Tested Blinkenlights and TTYUI uis to make sure that SIGUSR1
and SIGUSR2 actually still work.

Document those signals in MANUAL.rst. They were completly undocumented.

This simplifies the code and interdependencies by passing less stuff
around. Removes an undocumented and weirdly named class.

fa0b1ef8ee Add beginnings of sphinx-based code documentation
The docs still need some meat, but the infrastructure is in place. THis
allows us to generate the nice looking API documentation that many
python projects already have. We should document our API better, providing
an overview of the functionality available.

4e28c7c93f Allow to use nicer UI names
The previous ui names were pretty unwieldy. Is it TTYUI.TTY or
TTY.TTYUI? Do I have to use capitals and where?

Simplify the names by making them case insensitive and by dropping
everything before the dot.

So "Curses.Blinkenlights" can now be invoked as "blinkenlights" or
"BLINKENLIGHTS". The old names will still work just fine so the
transition should be smooth. We issue a warning that the long names are
deprecated.

Document in offlineimap.conf that we don't accept lists of fallback UIs,
but only one UI option (this was already the case before this commit but
still wrongly documented).

The list of accepted ui names is:
  ttyui (default), basic, quiet, machineui, blinkenlights

Looks like some distribution strip the extensions of the python commands and
some don't. Try to find the correct commands by ourself.

6eb56364e7 doc: migrate from SGML to restructuredtext
This is a great move to help contributors in maintaining documentation.

While doing huge changes in this area, do a bit more than simply SGML to rst:

 * move README from markdown to rst
 * make a "true" man page with no more information
 * refactor content and sections
