V2 of rate-limiting code that was recently removed from master. QCR sends 100s tweets per sec, which is more than we can process in a single server env, so provide a simple mechanism to reduce the deluge. Let's provide a home for traffic mgmt concerns.
Objectives
[x] modularized, for easy on-off control and limited cluttering of the QCR endpoint code.
[x] runs in each web process, so not fine-grained control ... simple by design.
[x] provide a home to bring back other features: de-duping, etc.
