Added the ability for the Command.func() method to return a value. This allows to potentially do e.g. value = caller.execute_cmd('cmdname'). Not used at all by default commands nor the engine itself, but potentially useful for admins wanting to implement some sort of 'nested' command structure, maybe using a custom input language.

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.

Scripts and Exits updated. Fixed some deep issues with Scripts that caused object-based scripts to not properly shut down in some situations, as well as spawn multiple instances of themselves. I think this should resolve all "at_repeat doubling" issues reported. Due to optimizations in the typeclass cache loader in a previous update, the Exit cmdsets were not properly loaded (they were loaded at cache time, which now doesn't happen as often). So Exits instead rely on the new "at_cmdset_get" hook called by the cmdhandler. It allows dynamic modification of cmdsets just before they are accessed. Resolves issue173 (I hope). Resolves issue180. Resolves issue 181.

Made scripts and typeclassed objects remember db_typeclass_path at all times - a temporarily faulty typeclass will no longer mess up things forever after. Refined and optimized the way typeclasses are cached and loaded, minimizing db hits. The default result when trying to create an object or script with a typeclass that is faulty/not found is now to fail. The previous way, to create an entity anyway using defaults was hard to debug and caused confusion. Resolves issue 175.

Migrate. Made Exits work differently, by use of commands directly instead of an exithandler assigning commands on-the-fly. This solution is a lot cleaner and also solves an issue where @reload would kill typeclasses in situations where an exit was painting to an object whose typeclass was reloaded (same issue occured if the exit typeclass itself was reloaded). As part of these fixes I cleaned up the merging of cmdsets to now merge in strict priority order, as one would expect them to do. Many small bug-fixes and cleanups all over. Resolves issue 164.

Migrate. Added the "view" access restriction (to make objects invisible). Also changed the input of ObjectDB.objects.object_search() to not require a caller as an argument (this makes it consistent with other search methods). All default systems should have updated to the new call, but if you have custom calls, you need to change them to fit the new syntax (this is only important if explicitly use ObjectDB.objects.object_search; if you just use caller.search you should be fine)

Run Migrate. Implemented a full separation between Player and Character - Players (OOC entities) can now also hold cmdsets and execute commands. This means that "disconnecting" from a Character becomes possible, putting the Player in an "OOC" state outside the game. This overall makes the game much more stable since there used to be issues if the character was destroyed. Having an OOC set also avoids the previous problem of @puppeting into an object that didn't have any cmdset of its own - you couldn't get back out! A new default OOC-Cmdset handles commands available to a player while OOC. Commands in this set are applied with a low priority, allowing "IC" mode to give precedence if desired.
...
This change meant several changes to the lock and permission functionality, since it becomes important if permissions are assigned on the Player or on their Character (lock functions pperm() and pid() etc check on Player rather than Character). This has the boon of allowing Admins to switch and play/test the game as a "Low access" character as they like.
Plenty of bug fixes and adjustments. Migrations should make sure to move over all data properly.

- This implements an updated, clearer and more robust access system. The policy is now to lock that which is not explicitly left open.
- Permission strings -> Lock strings. Separating permissions and locks makes more sense security-wise
- No more permissiongroup table; permissions instead use a simple tuple PERMISSIONS_HIERARCHY to define an access hierarchy
- Cleaner lock-definition syntax, all based on function calls.
- New objects/players/channels get a default security policy during creation (set through typeclass)
As part of rebuilding and testing the new lock/permission system I got into testing and debugging several other systems, fixing some
outstanding issues:
- @reload now fully updates the database asynchronously. No need to reboot server when changing cmdsets
- Dozens of new test suites added for about 30 commands so far
- Help for channels made more clever and informative.
