Removed repetitive imports in the utils.create functions. I experimented with making these methods yield more, but it's hard to integrate this behaviour with actual production code.

Updated how cmdsethandler reports syntaxerrors in command modules - this used to lead to rather opaque error messages. Now a dummy cmdset is created instead, with the key _ERROR_CMDSET and holding the error message. This allows the user to see that an error was reported instead of just being left in the blank. Full tracebacks are reported to log as usual.

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.
