CellProfiler/CellProfiler — Issue #125: JIRA [IMG-1138] Allow BatchProfiler to resubmit failed jobs with a higher memory allocation

I had one failed job in a batch, because it ran out of memory. I ran it again (twice) with the same results. I tried changing the database entry'memory_limit', but this didn't change the bsub command, surprisingly. I ended up resubmitting, then copying the bsub command, killing the job and resubmitted manually with greater memory limits and the job completed.
To solve, either:
(1) (More hackish) Have the Resubmit button read the'memory_limit' from the database
(2) (More elegant) Add a new drop-down next to'Queue' that allows a few different memory_limits (say, 2,4,8)
(Feel free to assign this to me, and I can figure out the cgi code, unless it's not working as expected now)

We're going to put a new drop-down in place, with a max mem of 16
