unicode branch merged into next

Just a heads up for anybody testing or working with "next", I've merged
jbq@ and my "unicode" branch into "next" for the upcoming v2.2

This currently results in 36 test failures, mostly from
src/Tests/SyntaxAndOutput.py where the compiler is now returning
unicode() objects instead of str() objects and the tests are getting
confused.


I'll be working this weekend on resolving the test failures and making
sure none of them are valid. 

This marks a *large* milestone for Cheetah, inside of the Cheetah
compiler and parser now, all strings are treated as Unicode objects and
are encoded on a need-to-encode basis.

This resolves a few long standing issues with Unicode support and
Cheetah and should help modernize the Cheetah codebase as Python moves
in this direction in the future. 

Many thanks to jbq@ for all his work with these changes, v2.2 is going
to rock :)


Cheers
