    build_job: return queue item identifier
    
    Since Jenkins version 1.519 (released 2013/06/17), build_job() would
    always return an empty string (the empty HTTP body from the POST
    request).
    
    Read the HTTP response's Location header and return the queue ID number.
    
    Clients can use this number to query server for the the upcoming job's
    status.

Title:
  build_job() always returns an empty string, no way to track resulting
  ID

Status in Python Jenkins:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Since Jenkins version 1.519 (released 2013/06/17), build_job() always
  returns an empty string (the empty HTTP body from the POST request).

  The Jenkins REST API currently returns an HTTP response with a
  "Location" header that includes a queue item number for the job. This
  queue item number is only valid for a few minutes until Jenkins
  removes it from memory, but in the meantime, while it's available,
  clients can poll it to find the eventual job ID / URL.

  Instead of returning the HTTP response body, we should parse this
  Location HTTP header and return the queue ID. This will require a new
  jenkins_urlopen() method, since the main jenkins_open() method only
  returns the body without regard for any headers.

  We can also implement a get_queue_item() method to discover a queued
  job's status, and possibly a job URL.
