dspam: a batch of improvements:

expanded POD
cleaned up stray EOL spaces
added lots of logging, with standardized [ pass | fail | skip ] prefixes
added reject_type option
use split for parsing dspam headers
use SA note instead of parsing headers
added reject = agree option
store & fetch dspam results in a note

Adds the X-DSPAM-Result and X-DSPAM-Signature headers to messages. The latter is essential for
training dspam and the former is useful to MDAs, MUAs, and humans.
Adds a transaction note to the qpsmtpd transaction. The notes is a hashref
with at least the 'class' field (Spam,Innocent,Whitelisted). It will normally
contain a probability and confidence ratings as well.
=head1 TRAINING DSPAM
Do not just enable dspam! Its false positive rate when untrained is high. The
good news is; dspam learns very, very fast.
To get dspam into a useful state, it must be trained. The best method way to
train dspam is to feed it two large equal sized corpuses of spam and ham from
your mail server. The dspam authors suggest avoiding public corpuses. I do
