The linux version of the notifications library we are using doesn't
handle the gtk.main loop. It requires the systray to be running to be

pretty early and later on launch the main loop once we have bitmask and
other stuff ready.

autostart next time.

Now that my patchers are merged we can revert back to use upstream.

The systray quit is being fixed in our fork of the getlantern/systray.

Create a systray.pid file to check if another systray is in execution
and only one systray is allowed to be running.
