Title:
  Launchpad should return 503 error pages when database is unavailable

Status in Launchpad itself:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  When a PostgreSQL database is unavailable, we should return a 503
  error code instead of a 500.

  We should still log an OOPS.

  We can make the page pretty. Wording might be tricky, as Launchpad
  will not know if this was a scheduled outage or if a power cord has
  been kicked out.
