Erik Johnston 367158a609 Add wrap_as_background_process decorator.
This does the same thing as `run_as_background_process` but means we
don't need to create superfluous functions.

Richard van der Hoff 03751a6420 Fix some looping_call calls which were broken in #3604
It turns out that looping_call does check the deferred returned by its
callback, and (at least in the case of client_ips), we were relying on this,
and I broke it in #3604.

Update run_as_background_process to return the deferred, and make sure we
return it to clock.looping_call.

Richard van der Hoff 6e3fc657b4 Resource tracking for background processes
This introduces a mechanism for tracking resource usage by background
processes, along with an example of how it will be used.

This will help address #3518, but more importantly will give us better insights
into things which are happening but not being shown up by the request metrics.

We *could* do this with Measure blocks, but:
 - I think having them pulled out as a completely separate metric class will
   make it easier to distinguish top-level processes from those which are
   nested.

 - I want to be able to report on in-flight background processes, and I don't
   think we want to do this for *all* Measure blocks.
