Summary: prevent and log subscription spamflood (2.1.8)

Initial Comment:
The attached patch for mailman 2.1.8 causes mailman to
ignore subscriptions that already exist in pending.pck
and request.pck. This prevents people from
mass-spamming either the list admin or random email
addresses (depending on the configuration of the list).
