is mostly concentrated in a generalized find_module() and the new
load_module().  Added the new module type constants.  Declare that
SEARCH_ERROR and a whole bunch of module-type-specific functions are
obsolete.

load-module() didn't find a built-in or frozen module.  Also got rid
of is_frozen(), which duplicated the functionality of
find_frozen()!=NULL.

resulted in full recompilation every time.

"optimize" has replaced "don't print".

preference handling code is in modules pythonprefs and preferences.
This should finally make it easier for someone (Just?) to write a

initial sys.path and such from ConfigurePython.

Added a couple of splash screens to show what we're doing

up entirely ob cleanup).

instance, use inst.__dict__.update(value) instead of a for loop with
setattr() over the value.keys().  This is more consistent (the
pickling doesn't use getattr() either but pickles inst.__dict__) and
avoids problems with instances that have a __setattr__ hook.

But it *is* a semantic change (because the setattr hook is no longer
used).  So beware!
