The `tempurl` subcommand's second positional argument is called
`seconds` and has heretofore interpreted as the number of seconds for
which the tempURL should be valid, counting from the moment of running
the command. This is indeed a common, if not the most common,
use-case. But some users, occasionally, might want to generate a tempURL
that expires at some particular ("absolute") time, rather than a
particular amount of time relative to the moment of happening to run the
command. (One might make an analogy to the way in which Swift's expiring
object support supports an `X-Delete-At` header in addition to
`X-Delete-After`—and it's the former that must be regarded as
ontologically prior.) Thus, this commit adds an `--absolute` optional
argument to the `tempurl` subcommand; if present, the `seconds` argument
will be interpreted as a Unix timestamp of when the tempURL should be
expire, rather than a duration for which the tempURL should be valid
starting from "now".

Closes-Bug: 1420253

This patch adds a SwiftService class that incorporates the high
level logic from swiftclient/shell.py. It also ports shell.py to
use the new class, and updates the code in swiftclient/multithreading.py
to allow the SwiftService to be used for multiple operations whilst
using only one thread pool.

Currently, code that imports swiftclient has to have its own logic for
things like creating large objects, parallel uploads, and parallel
downloads. This patch adds a SwiftService class that makes that
functionality available in Python code as well as through the shell.

The current manual page contains hyphens where a minus sign
was intended. By default, "-" chars are interpreted as
hyphens (U+2010) by groff, not as minus signs (U+002D).
Since options to programs use minus signs (U+002D), this
means for example in UTF-8 locales that you cannot cut and
paste options, nor search for them easily.

This patch fixes this by escaping hyphens with backslashes,
and also fixes a typo: s/retreived/retrieved/.

This patch adds a capabilities option on swiftclient.
This option uses the new /info endpoint to request the
remote capabilities and nicely display it.

This fixes bug #1051046

A repeatable option, --header or -H, is added so a user can specify
custom headers such as Range or If-Modified-Since when downloading
an object with the swift CLI.
