This patch add one API to tracker client,
so it is easy to query tracker daemon's busy/idle status by call it.

for example, a desktop applet can show different icons when tracker 
daemon is busy or idle.



its not quite right

the queue length can be zero and tracker can still be indexing. Also we
overflow large queues into a temp table to preserve RAM (you will see it
called as pending files in the code) so it can be zero but still have a
large number of pending files

you really need to check for the file process thread to be sleeping
instead and set a suitable variable. There is a tracker->status variable
already in the code in trackerd.c to track the various states but its
not used anywhere so I dont know if its up to date

everything else looks ok so feel free to send an update

thanks
