Add capability to "phase out" drones.  You can disable a drone in the global config using "<drone hostname>_disabled: 1".  Then, from the scheduler web interface, you can reload the config, causing the scheduler to stop scheduling new jobs on the drone but to see all existing jobs to completion.  This allows us to safely remove drones from the system without any loss of work.

Also moves some initialization lines in monitor_db.main() inside the try-except, so that exceptions there will be reported via email and the status server will still be shut down.
