Do not use codecs.decode(s, "unicode_escape"). It has two issues:
 * When being passed a bytes literal, the returned value becomes a str
   and the decoding operation is locale specific on Python3.
 * When passing a unicode literal, it implicitly encodes to
   sys.getdefaultencoding() (locale specific) on Python2.
Thus "unicode_escape" is a bad choice in all cases.

For Python2 string_escape works with str, but it hinders a potential
Python3 port of dak. Use it now, because Python3 is totally broken.

  rewrite daklib.utils.gpg_get_key_addresses
  convert daklib.dbconn from os.popen to subprocess
  put Python's with statement to good use

 * No longer uses the deprecated commands module.
 * No longer invokes gpg via a shell.
 * Passes --with-colons to gpg now.
 * No longer depends on the current locale (since --with-colons forces
   UTF-8 output).

It now explicitly closes the filedescriptors opened (by calling wait)
and checks the return code of gpg.

Rather than using try-finally blocks or even failing to close files in
the event of an exception, open files in with blocks where feasible.

Reading the file to check once rather than three times is both faster
and shorter.

The file asks Vim to set tabstop=4. So the "lines = []" line formerly
being indented with a tab appears to be executed unconditionally whereas
it really only is executed in the exception handler.

The regular expression used a ".", so it would accept "1-0" or even
"120" for source format 1.0.

  Update NEW email template.

 The last one was a bit too technical and obscured with details about
 how dak works internally. This is a more clear project-centric template
 that explains the situation in terms the average contributor would
 understand.

textwrap.wrap is used by TransitionCheck.

The option isn't used any longer in dak.

The option moved into the "archive" database table in
