Added a new 'contrib' folder for optional code snippets not suitable for the server core. Added contrib/menusystem for implementing a multi-choice menu system. Added contrib/lineeditor - a powerful line editor with commands mimicking VI. Also added an example NPC class using the menu system to allow for a conversation. As part of creating these contributions, lots of bugs were found and fixed. A new and more powerful cmdparser was intruduced as a result - this one is much easier to understand than the old one, while being more efficient and versatile. All testsuites were updated. Also: Resolves issue 165.

'Contrib' folder
----------------
This folder contains 'contributions': extra snippets of code that are
potentially very useful for the game coder but which are considered
too game-specific to be a part of the main Evennia game server. These
modules are not used unless you explicitly import them.
If you want to edit, tweak or expand on this code you should copy the
things you want from here into game/gamesrc and change them there.
* Evennia MenuSystem (Griatch 2011) - A base set of classes and
cmdsets for creating in-game multiple-choice menus in
Evennia. The menu tree can be of any depth. Menu options can be
numbered or given custom keys, and each option can execute
code. Also contains a yes/no question generator function. This
is intended to be used by commands and presents a y/n question
to the user for accepting an action. Includes a simple new
command 'menu' for testing and debugging.
* Evennia Lineeditor (Griatch 2011) - A powerful line-by-line editor
for editing text in-game. Mimics the command names of the famous
VI text editor. Supports undo/redo, search/replace,
regex-searches, buffer formatting, indenting etc. It comes with
its own help system. (Makes minute use of the MenuSystem module
to show a y/n question if quitting without having
saved). Includes a basic command '@edit' for activating the
editor.
* Talking_NPC (Griatch 2011) - An example of a simple NPC object that
you can strike up a menu-driven converstaion with. Uses the
MenuSystem to allow conversation options. The npc object defines
a command 'talk' for starting the (brief) conversation.
