FastCGI (Job Strategies)

[danhunsaker]

Expected Behavior

Refactor the current implementation to pull forking and in-process (no-fork) execution strategies into separate classes, which the worker processes will then use to actually spawn jobs according to sysadmin configuration. Then, add support for a FastCGI strategy, in addition to the forking and in-process strategies currently supported.

Current Behavior

Currently, only forking and in-process (non-forking) strategies are supported, and forking is used if it is supported, regardless of sysadmin preferences. This feature would allow the addition of other mechanisms under the hood, and give control over which to use to the sysadmin.

Possible Solution

The original attempt at this, by @ebernhardson, was in chrisboulton/php-resque#81

Context

This feature was originally suggested and Pull Requested under the old home for this project. This issue is intended to pull this functionality over to the current repository.
