rootwrap daemon mode

Registered by Yuriy Taraday

As it was pointed out several times on ML different services (most notably Neutron and Nova) suffer from performance penalty of having to run new instance of rootwrap executable for each call that needs root privileges.
I suggest spawning an external daemon process (agent) that will read configuration once and start receiving commands over RPC (not MQ-based) and spawning processes working with root priviledges passing back results.
