Patchew REST API improvements

Summary: Improve a REST API to retrieve patch metadata, testing results, etc. from [patchew.org]

Patchew is an open source CI project to automate testing of patches submitted as emails on mailing lists. Currently Patchew has a simple API, but it is complicated to use it because it is not REST-like and it exposes low-level details of the patchew database schema. The project aims at replacing it with a new REST API. A first implementation of the API is available in a pull request; other improvements on top include implementing missing features of the old API (importing from mailing lists, tracking git repositories), OAuth authentication, and a webhooks plugin.
