Summary: Remove "Save and Shutdown" button when running as service

Initial Comment:
Robert Neuschul on spambayes at python.org:
"""
I have a /small/ query/comment about the web UI and
functionality when it's used in conjunction with the
pop3proxy_service.py on a Windows Server: there's 
a "Save & Shutdown" button on most pages. If one does
use it then the service stops.
This button therefore seems to me to be doing something
slightly illogical in this context - in most instances
when running as a service one does NOT want to shutdown
after saving any changes or after training etc - that's
the whole 
point of running as a service. 
This button seems to be of more use when SpamBayes is
working in pure application mode - perhaps on a
workstation or personal PC - rather than as a service
on a server.
"""

This makes sense to me.  Robert makes various
suggestions, but it seems to me that the most sensible
option is to simply remove the button if we are running
as a service (all the saving is done elsewhere, anyway,
so it's really just doing a shutdown).  Of course, we
need to therefore detect that we are running as a
service, which I'm pretty sure we don't have any way of
doing at the moment.

Something that would be good to fix at some point, anyway.
