worker: kill workers after all zombie processes are reaped
Since we now wait child processes in non-blocking way (changed by 7bc25549e084
and e8fb03cfbbde), we don't have to kill them in the middle of the waitpid()
loop. This change will help solving a possible race of waitpid()-pids.discard()
sequence and another SIGCHLD.
waitforworkers() is called by cleanup(), in which case we do killworkers()
beforehand so we can remove killworkers() from waitforworkers().

worker: make sure killworkers() never be interrupted by another SIGCHLD
killworkers() iterates over pids, which can be updated by SIGCHLD handler.
So we should either copy pids or prevent killworkers() from being interrupted
by SIGCHLD. I chose the latter as it is simpler and can make pids handling
more consistent.
This fixes a possible "set changed size during iteration" error at
killworkers() before cleanup().

filterpyflakes: dramatically simplify the entire thing by blacklisting
We've only got one kind of pyflakes failure left in our codebase, so
it's time to switch over to a blacklist-based checking scheme. I've
left in the filtering of two undefined names for now out of paranoia,
but those can probably go too.

run-tests: forward Python USER_BASE from site (issue5425)
We do this so that any linters installed via pip install --user don't
break. See https://docs.python.org/2/library/site.html#site.USER_BASE
for a description of what this nonsense is all about.
An alternative would be to not set HOME, but that'll cause other
problems (see issue2707), or to forward every single path entry from
sys.path in PYTHONPATH (which seems sketchy in its own way).

util: improve iterfile so it chooses code path wisely
We have performance concerns on "iterfile" as it is 4X slower on normal
files. While modern systems have the nice property that reading a "fast"
(on-disk) file cannot be interrupted and should be made use of.
This patch dumps the related knowledge in comments. And "iterfile" chooses
code paths wisely:
1. If it's CPython 3, or PyPY, use the fast path.
2. If fp is a normal file, use the fast path.
3. If fp is not a normal file and CPython version >= 2.7.4, use the same
workaround (4x slower) as before.
4. If fp is not a normal file and CPython version < 2.7.4, use another
workaround (2x slower but may block longer then necessary) which
basically re-invents the buffer + readline logic in Python.
This will give us good confidence on both correctness and performance
dealing with EINTR in iterfile(fp) for all known supported Python versions.
