Small bug fixes

The suggestions: footer used in help gave too narrow results, now using apropos-style search instead.
Bug fix of state-help command to make it accept switches.
Added several new example commands and cleaned up old ones to be more user-friendly.
Added protection in @delevent to make it harder to delete system events.
Some small bug fixes and other cleanup.
Object commands used to require re-adding every call in the script parent's __init__ or factory functions, adding the commands to a new command table directly on the object. Since all other attributes can be set up in at_object_creation(), this was both inconsistent and a bit confusing to work with. There is now a method add_commands() directly defined on all objects. It takes the same arguments as the normal add_command()o but use a reserved attribute to create and update a command table on the object. This has the advantange of completely removing the __init__ call in the script parent, all definitions can now be kept in at_object_creation() and are, more importantly, persistent without having to be recreated every call.
- I updated the examine command to show all the commands defined on an object (if any).
- I updated gamesrc/parents/examples/red_button.py considerably using the new command methodology and also using the updated Events.

Added the permission genperms.admin_nostate so that builders can avoid entering a state when working on a room with a state-changing parent. Superusers have to set the flag ADMIN_NOSTATE on themselves to achieve the same effect (this is necessary since superusers always have all permissions, so they would otherwise never be able to enter states).

The main drawback of multi-word commands are that they can not have any switches; they are intended for in-game use (in states and on objects). Use normal one-word commands for administration and more complex commands with many options.

The help entry database structure has changed! You have to resync or purge
your database or your will get problems!
New features:
* Help entry access now fully controlled by evennia permissions
* Categories for each help entry
* All entries are created dynamically, with a See also: footer calculated
after the current state of the database.
* Indexes and topic list calculated on the fly (alphabetically/after category)
* Added auto-help help entries for all default commands.
* Only shows commands _actually implemented_ - MUX help db moved into 'MUX' category
which is not shown by default.
* More powerful auto-help markup - supports categories and permissions (and inheritance).
* Global on/off switch for auto-help, when entering production
* Auto_help_override switch for selectively activating auto-help when developing
new commands (like the old system).
* Refactored State help system; no more risk of overwriting global help entries.
* State help now defers to main help db when no match found; makes system more transparent.
* State help entries also support categories/permissions (state categories are not
used much though).
Other updates:
* Added more commands to the batch processor
* Many bug-fixes.
