The setup.py uses the version, author and others attributes as metadata
for the python package.
The setup read them from offlineimap/__init__.py doing an import of the
module first.
Unfortunately the import also try to import all the dependencies of
offlineimap which may not be installed by the time. See #661.
Moving out the attributes in a separated module allows to be imported by
setup.py whitout needing to import the whole offlineimap.
The import of test.OLItest has the same limitation. In this case the
import was delayed until the real test case run is executed avoiding
again loading offlineimap from the begin.

Move central constant definitions into __init__.py. This does away
with version.py which contained nothing else and __init__.py is where
things like __VERSION__ are usually defined.
This commit also changes code to use offlineimap.__version__ rather
than offlineimap.version.__version__ as was before. Cleaned up some
duplicate or unneeded imports while touching those, formatting import
statements per PEP8 (one import per row).

Move the command line option handling from the more manual "getopts"
module to the full fledged "OptionParser". It has the advantage of
e.g. automatically creating the Help text that is shown with the
"-h/--help" option rather than having to hardcode the text and
format the line breaking manually.
Also, do away with the version check when invoking OfflineImap so we
do not have to change the version number in three places when bumping
it.
Rename startup() to run() which sounds more in line what other modules
call their run functions (e.g. Thread.run()).

FYI: not sure if you all saw it or changed it, but there were three
places I always changed for each new release:
offlineimap.py
bin/offlineimap
offlineimap/version.py
in particular, the value in version.py must match the value in the
offlineimap(.py) file that someone uses to start the thing up.

Subject: Assorted patches
Here's the result of a lazy Sunday hacking on offlineimap. Sorry for
not breaking this into multiple patches. They're mostly logically
independent so just ask if that would make a difference.
First, a new -q (quick) option. The quick option means to only update
folders that seem to have had significant changes. For Maildir, any
change to any message UID or flags is significant, because checking
the flags doesn't add a significant cost. For IMAP, only a change to
the total number of messages or a change in the UID of the most recent
message is significant. This should catch everything except for
flags changes.
The difference in bandwidth is astonishing: a quick sync takes 80K
instead of 5.3MB, and 28 seconds instead of 90.
There's a configuration variable that lets you say every tenth sync
should update flags, but let all the intervening ones be lighter.
Second, a fix to the UID validity problems many people have been
reporting with Courier. As discussed in Debian bug #433732, I changed
the UID validity check to use SELECT unless the server complains that
the folder is read-only. This avoids the Courier bug (see the Debian
log for more details). This won't fix existing validity errors, you
need to remove the local status and validity files by hand and resync.
Third, some speedups in Maildir checking. It's still pretty slow
due to a combination of poor performance in os.listdir (never reads
more than 4K of directory entries at a time) and some semaphore that
leads to lots of futex wake operations, but at least this saves
20% or so of the CPU time running offlineimap on a single folder:
Time with quick refresh and md5 in loop: 4.75s user 0.46s system 12%
cpu 41.751 total
Time with quick refresh and md5 out of loop: 4.38s user 0.50s system
14% cpu 34.799 total
Time using string compare to check folder: 4.11s user 0.47s system 13%
cpu 34.788 total
And fourth, some display fixes for Curses.Blinkenlights. I made
warnings more visible, made the new quick sync message cyan, and
made all not explicitly colored messages grey. That last one was
really bugging me. Any time OfflineIMAP printed a warning in
this UI, it had even odds of coming out black on black!
Anyway, I hope these are useful. I'm happy to revise them if you see
a problem.
