Batch jobs can now be submitted with user priority

Description of Service Change: 

By using the "-sp" option of the bsub command, users can specify a priority of 1-100 for their jobs (default is 50). Higher priority jobs (higher number) will be dispatched first. This only affects the dispatch priority of your own jobs - it does not affect your priority (or "share") with respect to other users of the batch system. (If you don't need this option, it's safe to ignore.)

Reason for this change: 

user request.
