According to https://github.com/redneb/disk-free-space/issues/3 ,
disk-free-space should be at least as portable as my homegrown code was.
One change I noticed is, getDiskSize was not implemented for windows
in the old code, and should work now.
* Removed the webapp-secure build flag, rolling it into the webapp build
flag.
* Removed the quvi and tahoe build flags, which only adds aeson to
the core dependencies.
* Removed the feed build flag, which only adds feed to the core
dependencies.
Build flags have cost in both code complexity and also make Setup configure
have to work harder to find a usable set of build flags when some
dependencies are missing.
The benchmark shows that the database access is quite fast indeed!
And, it scales linearly to the number of keys, with one exception,
getAssociatedKey.
Based on this benchmark, I don't think I need worry about optimising
for cases where all files are locked and the database is mostly empty.
In those cases, database access will be misses, and according to this
benchmark, should add only 50 milliseconds to runtime.
(NB: There may be some overhead to getting the database opened and locking
the handle that this benchmark doesn't see.)

Make these features solely dependent on the OS being built on.
This lets stack build on windows w/o XMPP, on OSX w/o DBUS,
and on Linux with everything.
It was failing at link time, some problem with terminatePID.
Re-implemented that to not use a C wrapper function, which cleared up the
problem. Removed old EvilLinker hack with must have been related to the
same problem.
Note that I have not tested this with older ghc's. In
f11f7520b5 I mention having tried this
approach before, and getting segfaults.. So, who knows. It seems to work
fine with ghc 7.10 at least.
