Redefine the batch API to be very very simple. You call

batch::start() before starting a series of events, and batch::stop()
when you're done.

In batch mode, the notification module will store up pending
notifications.  When the batch job is complete, it'll send a single
digested email to each user for all of her notifications.

Updated the scaffold and local_import to use this.  Haven't modified
SimpleUploader yet.
