Subject: Add gitano.hooks module with basic functionality

The gitano.hooks module is intended to support a variety of hooks, both those
defined by Gitano itself; and those added by plugins.

Hooks are meant as a means to propagate information and also to permit
alteration of arguments before work is done.

+-- Hook functions take the form:

+-- where the ... is chained through, and returned verbatim at
+-- the end.
+-- action can be nil (on error) or else one of:
+-- continue --> call the next hook function if there is one (not chaining ...)
+-- update   --> as for 'continue' but chaining the ...
+-- stop     --> stop now and return the rest of the results.
+
+-- Wherever Gitano registers a hook for something, the hook priority
+-- of zero will be Gitano's action.  So if you want to alter what is
+-- passed to Gitano's default behaviour, register with a negative value
+-- and if you want to just do more afterwards, register with a positive
+-- value
