This replaces the TPV's API call to the stats server with a database query. Destinations are still being ranked by the metric of %cpu used and future changes will consider memory as well. The result will be different because a job is counted in the query as soon as it has been queued, rather than as soon as it is running at the destination.
This is the first step in updating the ranking and we can observe whether it significantly increases the load on the database. Further changes will involve considering memory, and considering the quantity of resources available at various destinations instead of the proportion. I'd like to address the edge cases of low CPU high memory jobs that sometimes get stuck in the slurm queue when better destinations are immediately available.
Partly addresses issue #1142
This is ready to go but I've marked it as WIP - if merged I'd like to be around in case it throws exceptions.
