Description

This will restart all jobs using the same resources (to fix #164) and defaults to expired jobs (as requested via mail). Can also be used in bt[lm]apply() to "resume" calculation.

Research direction

Start by reading the existing job submission paths and the bt[lm]apply() entry points, then inspect how expired jobs and resource settings are represented. Implement resubmitJobs() so it restarts jobs with the same resources, defaults to expired jobs, and can support resuming calculations; verify behavior against the problem described in #164.
