Description of problem:

Pulp v1 (official from github.com/pulp, branch 'pulp_v1') has several extra commits related to handling unicode support in repository id's that did not get cherry picked into the 'rhui' branch at (github.com/splice/pulp).

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
RHUI 2.1.2

How reproducible:
We saw this problem showing up as an intermittent problem from test_repo_cloning.py:TestRepoSyncSchedule.test_repo_clone_with_i18n_id

The problem expresses itself as a random from of the above test fails.
This leaves a task snapshot in mongodb:


 db.task_snapshots.find()

Once this problematic task snapshot is in pulp_unittest, the majority of unit tests then fail.  They fail when the async.initialize()

To fix this we need to drop pulp_unittest in mongoDB
