Description
Add another demo program to the docs: this one should run a single command upon request by the client. The client doesn't get to say anything about which command gets run, only when.
My use case for this is the buildbot source repository: I want to have a patch queue manager accept signed email, apply the patch, then use this tool to notify a separate process (in a separate VM) that it should pull the new patches from the PQM's tree. (in this arrangement, the PQM's VM does not have the authority to push anything into the other tree, but instead this command-server tool will be used as a sort of doorbell).
Done, in [bae89b44edc2666d0b45105bc73c2b7062290881]. It could probably be more convenient as a .tac file, but I'll make that happen later.
