instead of prerotating 1000 tasks
(which resulted in 2 writes each time an active worker was finished)
simply append finished tasks to the archive (which will be rotated)

page cache should be good enough so that we can get the task logs fast

since existing installations might have an 'index' file, we
still have to read tasks from there

maybe there is a better way to get rid of the index file handling?
we cannot really simply append the index file to the archive in
a postinst since the old daemon may still write into it..

do we actually care? the users may lose some task information, but
no actual harm should come from lost task logs, since we use
the jobstate for the state handling and scheduling

we could also simply removing the index code from the iterator
and leave it in 'update_active_workers' so that after the next finished
active task, we move them from the index file to archive
so we lose them just temporarily....?

not sure so sending as RFC
