a small daemon that can index information using the new crawler.

• very fast crawling
• very small memory footprint
• no hammering of the system
• pluggable backend, currently clucene and hyperestraier, sqlite3 and xapian are in the works
• communication between daemon and search program over an abstract interface, this is currently a simple socket but implementation of dbus is a possibility. There's a small perl program in the code as an example of how to query. This is so easy that any KDE app could implement this.
• simple interface for implementing plugins for extracting information. we'll try to reuse the kat plugins, although native plugins will have a large speed advantage
• calculation of sha1 for every file crawled (allows fast finding of duplicates)
