A global object Jobs is created, which manages jobs. It is populated from the "jobs" table in the server database.

1	loadJobs(which = NULL)

which

character scalar or integer scalar, which will be converted to a character scalar. Load only jobs whose top job is in that queue. If NULL (the default), do not actually load or queue any jobs.

It has these fixed fields:

type: character; type of job
done: integer; 0 if not attempted; negative for errors; +1 for successfully finished
queue: integer; the queue to which a job belongs; there is one queue per running processServer(). If queue==0, the job has been enqueued for processing but not yet claimed by one of the processServers(). If queue is null, it is being handled by emailServer() or pathServer()
path: full path to folder for job
oldpath: full path to previous folder for job (permits recovery from server failure during job move)
user: username, when job is the top job from an authenticated email

Other job items are stored in a JSON-encoded text field called data.

For any jobs to be loaded we verify that the "path" field is correct, in case the server was interrupted while moving a job.

the number of jobs enqueued in the new global MOTUS_QUEUE. The Jobs are stored in the global Jobs.
