Open source version of scalable, non-blocking web server that power FriendFeed

Edit Package python-tornado
http://www.tornadoweb.org

Tornado is an open source version of the scalable, non-blocking web server and tools that power FriendFeed.
The FriendFeed application is written using a web framework that looks a bit like web.py or Google's webapp,
but with additional tools and optimizations to take advantage of the underlying non-blocking infrastructure.

The framework is distinct from most mainstream web server frameworks (and certainly most Python frameworks)
because it is non-blocking and reasonably fast. Because it is non-blocking and uses epoll, it can handle
thousands of simultaneous standing connections, which means it is ideal for real-time web services. We built
the web server specifically to handle FriendFeed's real-time features — every active user of FriendFeed
maintains an open connection to the FriendFeed servers. (For more information on scaling servers to support
thousands of clients, see The C10K problem.)

- Distribute license file

- specfile:
  * removed tornado-configtest.patch: fixed upstream
  * update tornado-async-deprecation.patch (partly integrated)
- update to version 4.5.2:
  * Tornado now sets the FD_CLOEXEC flag on all file descriptors it
    creates. This prevents hanging client connections and resource
    leaks when the tornado.autoreload module (or
    Application(debug=True)) is used.
- changes from version 4.5.1:
  * tornado.log
    + Improved detection of libraries for colorized logging.
  * tornado.httputil
    + url_concat once again treats None as equivalent to an empty
      sequence.
- changes from version 4.5.0:
  * long changelog, see http://www.tornadoweb.org/en/stable/releases/v4.5.0.html

It is not yet fully supported by Salt and upstream is working on it. I think we just need to wait a little bit. Also Salt is not yet supports Python 3.7 anyway.
