- Added a hacky notice for Firefox users instead of the broken range

The cleanup could be missed if the request handling code in
app.py:__call__ exits early (due to exception, or due to
one of those early "return"s).
So to make sure the sql session is cleaned up for real,
wrap the whole thing in a try: finally:.
Also wrote a short tool to test if the session is actually
empty. The tool is currently disabled, but ready to be
used.
After converting everything, check what is actually used in
the db. For media_types that are not used, drop all the
media_data tables and remove the migration info.
Attributes of SQLAlchemy objects get "lost". So "cache"
them locally in the code.
This is really the simple explanation for some scarry
sqlalchemy details.
This switches the whole source code over to use sql instead
of mongodb. It's a pretty easy change, but changes nearly
the complete way things work. Hopefully everythong works!
The JSON fields are really "dumb stuff in here" fields.
They are not intended to get indexed or anything. And they
can get large. For example the exif_all field in one of my
simple tests is nearly 7 kB large. Although VARCHAR might
work, TEXT feels just better as the storage type.
1. Add a super-minimal media_data table for audio.
It currently contains nothing.
Like the ascii one.
2. To avoid media_data trouble -- for now -- disable the
creation of media_data completrly.
so that they no longer import from PIL explicitly.
This is due to explicit PIL.Image* imports failing
on a Ubuntu machine within virtualenv.
PIL is a mystery I have yet to find the energy to unravel.
The 'implicit' approach works both for the affected
machine and my local machine and I've seen it more often
out in the wild, so I'm assuming it is the right way.
