Feature: Check for contents of archive prefix before dispatching to ETL parser. #302

Since different experiments were launched at different times, some date prefixes have no archive files. Rather than dispatch these to ETL and then handle errors, Gardener should check for the number of archive files in the prefix, and suppress the dispatch if there are no archives.

It could also record the number of archives, and compare this to the number of archives reported by the parser.
