(core) move home server into core

Browse Source 
Summary: This moves enough server material into core to run a home server.  The data engine is not yet incorporated (though in manual testing it works when ported).

Test Plan: existing tests pass

/**
*
* Simple CPU throttling implementation.
*
* For this setup, a sandbox attempting to use 100% of cpu over an
* extended period will end up throttled, in the steady-state, to
* 10% of cpu.
*
* Very simple mechanism to begin with. "ctime" is measured for the
* sandbox, being the cumulative time charged to the user (directly or
* indirectly) by the OS for that process. If the average increase in
* ctime over a time period is over 10% (targetRate) of that time period,
* throttling kicks in, and the process will be paused/unpaused via
* signals on a duty cycle.
*
* Left for future work: more careful shaping of CPU throttling, and
* factoring in a team-site level credit system or similar.
