Multiple fixes to ev and utils:
...
Made utils.variable_from_module more generic (it can now load pretty much any form of module it's given and also supports searching and returning multiple variables).
Removed the variable-load functionality from utils.load_module; this is now purely a loader - use variable_from_module instead.
I found out that one couldn't import from src.commands.default due to the __init__ file being restrictive for the sake of the ev API. Removed that and instead imported the default commands into ev.py with the help of utils.variable_from_module instead. Some more fixes in ev followed on this.

Changed how the Typeclass system returns errors. Instead of echoing typeclass erros to the MUD-info channel (which is not only not only very spammy for everyone but also very hard to make clean so as to avoid recursion at a stage of typeclass failing), the system instead stores a property on itself called 'typeclass_last_errmsg' that holds eventual errors. This means that the task of reporting errors does not fall on the typeclass system itself but on the calling methods, as it should be. So src.utils.create.create_* functions now takes a new optional keyword "report_to" that holds an object to receive errors. If this keyword is given, the function msg():es that object with the error and returns None as before. If report_to is not set however, the create_* methods now return an Exception containing the error text. All default commands have been changed to accomodate for this behaviour, which allows for much more control over errors.
...
Also, the default ADMIN_MEDIA static files changed location in Django 1.4. The initial_setup function now accounts for this.

Changed so object.move_to() traverses exits by default - i.e. you will no longer end up INSIDE the exit object if you move_to the exit, but instead you will go to the exits destination. This should be the most common use. The use_destination keyword to object.move_to can be used to change this behaviour. Also @teleport (which uses move_to()) has gotten a new flag to allow for teleporting into exits if so specifically desired. Resolves issue 224.

Added the ability to clear an object from the global cache. This is rarely
...
needed (and can be potentially dangerous if the object depends on certain
startup methods to run and/or holds temporary attributes on themselves -
these will all be lost due to a new instance being created. It is hoever
necessary when it comes to renaming Exits - since the Command on the exit
must then change name too, recaching the Exit will also update the command.
Resolves issue 223.

Updated game/ for the ev API. There will likely be some changes happening in the game/folder, in the way new objects are inherited. This should use the API rather than inherit from the basecommand/baseobject modules (these will probably into the example folders as vanilla templates instead).

Adding a new API system to Evennia. This centralizes all access of the evennia driver through a single module "ev". Importing ev one should be able to access (and also importantly, easily explore) Evennia's API much easier. This API goes a long way to "flatten" the structure so that one doesn't need to remember how to find some method in a deeply nested subdirectory.
...
As part of this work, I have also written full listings of all available properties on Typeclassed objects (including those inherited in various ways). Should hopefully make things easier to find.
One can of course still import things directly from src/ as before. But this is a first step towards removing the "base" objects in game/gamesrc and instead making those accessible through the core API.

Added an error_check_python_modules function to evennia.py. This basically imports a host of critical modules and quits with tracebacks if there are problems. This catches pure python-syntax errors (i.e. cases where the source-file itself is malformed), something which is hard to properly handle in the running server (where there's also an issue as to how to best report it). Best they fail out already at an early stage.

Changed the way unloggedin commands work. Rather than the cmdhander having a special state for unlogged-in commands, the session itself simply stores the cmdset from settings.CMDSET_UNLOGGEDIN.

Worked with admin interface, cleaning up and adding functionality. There are still some strange behaviour that makes e.g. the presence of inlines to auto-create empty database objects for some strange reason. Inlines are turned off at the moment (so there is no convenient way to add attributes from the admin interface at this time). Creating players now work, but one needs to create all three components (User, Player, Character) in one go and tie them together. The User-admin form was changed to also support multi-word usernames (django default didn't allow spaces).

Restructured the way typeclasses are loaded. This makes it possible to run at_init() hooks at initiation also for objects without any custom cases for character/players. at_init() hooks are called only when an object is initiated. This means that a room's at_init() hook is only called when someone looks or enters it or a script operates on it, for example, rest of the time these objects are dormant, most efficiently.

Added functionality to Attributes to store and update dicts and lists dynamically. One side effect of this is that dicts and tuples need to be stored as custom object types which means that e.g. isintance(obj.db.mylist) == type(list) will return False. In order to do checks like this, use src.utils.utils.inherits_from() instead. The Attribute system now also supports tuples. All other iterables except dicts, lists and tuples are stored and retrieved as lists, same as before.
