Handle SIGINT correctly in Client.waitForServer()
The Python 2.7 threading.Condition.wait() function will block the process from responding to any signals until the condition triggers. This was especially bad for commandline applications. Before this commit, if an application didn't manage to connect to the Gearman server it would block forever and ignore CTRL+C. Adding a 'timeout' works around this issue. Behaviour is unchanged except that the 'Waiting for at least one active connection' debug message will now be logged once per second. This problem is fixed upstream in Python 3.2: <https://bugs.python.org/issue8844> Change-Id: Ib1043948b1b37a4a6732176314b8a243aad73397
