Nerf Herder

A companion service to mongod to keep long running queries from causing chaos. Every so often config.interval nerfHerder will poll mongo to find a list of current operations. nerfHerder will then loop through each operation and evaluate each rule in config.rules. Each λ rule has the operation set as the context this. The λ can due whatever logic it wants and then return a thruthy value. true means the nerf lives, false means the nerf dies, killOp will be called to kill it.
