LinHES-system: add be_check.py and modify LinHES-session to use it.

This will stop mythfrontend/mythwelcome from starting if be_check can't connect to the master backend.
Mostly this was done to stop mythfronted from complaining about not being able to contact the MBE and in the worst case displaying  the DB connection configuration screen.
