Repair docfiles broken with the new ISwitchboard interface. Mostly these were
due to the change from the method Switchboard.files() to the generator property Switchboard.files. Add support in cleaning_teardown() for the doctests for removing all queue files leftover after a test is complete. This way, failures in one test that queues files won't break all subsequent such tests. Update the 2.1.9 section of the NEWS.txt file from the Mailman 2.1 branch.
