[torqueusers] wait for job completion

[Josh Butikofer]

The Moab Workload Manager product from CRI, which can drive TORQUE, has a bsub 
emulator functionality which successfully imitates the -K behavior--but it 
requires that you use Moab.

Creating a feature directly in TORQUE to handle this would definitely be a more 
straightforward solution.
