Make Mutalyzer easier to install, test, and run
This merge requests tracks the effort of making Mutalyzer easier to install, test, and run. This includes moving away from the idea that our local development environments should be identical to the production server. For development, it should be very easy to run Mutalyzer without setting up init scripts or Apache for that matter.
Along the way I'm doing some general cleanup, make the code more consistent (e.g., in variable naming) and update docstrings.
