Daniel Folkinshteyn a2985c37d6 Create a commands.process function which runs a function inside a separate process.
This is the only way to limit the execution time of a possibly long-running python statement.
Use this on String.re, due to the possibility of pathologically long re matching in python.
This allows us to remove the 'trusted-only' restriction on string.re.
In the future, this should probably be used in other places that take user-supplied regexps,
such as 'misc last --regexp', for example, as well as other potentially long-running tasks
that can block the bot.

README

EVERYONE:
---------
Read LICENSE.  It's a 3-clause BSD license, but you should read it
anyway.

USERS:
------
If you're upgrading, read RELNOTES.  There is also much documentation
at http://supybot.com/ for your perusal.  Please read it; we took the
time to write it, you should take the time to read it.

If you have any trouble, feel free to swing by #supybot on
irc.freenode.net or irc.oftc.net (we have a Supybot there relaying,
so either network works) and ask questions.  We'll be happy to help
wherever we can.  And by all means, if you find anything hard to
understand or think you know of a better way to do something,
*please* post it on Sourceforge.net so we can improve the bot!

WINDOWS USERS:
--------------
The wizards (supybot-wizard, supybot-newplugin, and
supybot-adduser) are all installed to your Python directory's
\Scripts.  What that *probably* means is that you'll run them like
this: C:\Python2x\python C:\Python2x\Scripts\supybot-wizard

DEVELOPERS:
-----------
We likewise have tons of developer documentation at
http://supybot.com/ for your learning adventures.  Have fun :)
