asciidocapi - AsciiDoc API wrapper class.

The AsciiDocAPI class provides an API for executing asciidoc. Minimal example
compiles `mydoc.txt` to `mydoc.html`:

  import asciidocapi
  asciidoc = asciidocapi.AsciiDocAPI()
  asciidoc.execute('mydoc.txt')

- Full documentation in asciidocapi.txt.
- See the doctests below for more examples.

Doctests:

1. Check execution:

   >>> import StringIO
   >>> infile = StringIO.StringIO('Hello *{author}*')
   >>> outfile = StringIO.StringIO()
   >>> asciidoc = AsciiDocAPI()
   >>> asciidoc.options('--no-header-footer')
   >>> asciidoc.attributes['author'] = 'Joe Bloggs'
   >>> asciidoc.execute(infile, outfile, backend='html4')
   >>> print outfile.getvalue()
   <p>Hello <strong>Joe Bloggs</strong></p>

   >>> asciidoc.attributes['author'] = 'Bill Smith'
   >>> infile = StringIO.StringIO('Hello _{author}_')
   >>> outfile = StringIO.StringIO()
   >>> asciidoc.execute(infile, outfile, backend='docbook')
   >>> print outfile.getvalue()
   <simpara>Hello <emphasis>Bill Smith</emphasis></simpara>

2. Check error handling:

   >>> import StringIO
   >>> asciidoc = AsciiDocAPI()
   >>> infile = StringIO.StringIO('---------')
   >>> outfile = StringIO.StringIO()
   >>> asciidoc.execute(infile, outfile)
