1) non-blocking (for other clients) update

- k) when bg-update, have parent print out new old stuff to log on reading db, not the child
- l) IMPORTANT: look over new command list shiznit and make it much cleaner, please! (in particular, move buffer2array code from interface.c to command.c, and have command stuff do buffer2array)

2) rewrite interface stuff, specifically command list handling etc so its less of a hack and deals with the above update stuff better

4) thourougly rewrite and check signal blocking and unblocking
5) add a --update-only, like --only-create-db, only just for updating

+6) use mackstann's idea of "polling" for signals instead of handling them right away, i .e. set some variables and in the sigHandler, then deal with it in select(), while loop
