4133ae1907 [modules] Initial module loading framework
Add a very simplistic framework for loading modules that query system
data. The user can provide a list of modules via an argument switch, and
the name of the module is used to look up a Python module that has to
have a class called "Module".

The outer framework (the outputs, in particular) then uses various query
methods of that class to construct a meaningful output.

c4683f3700 [output] Create preliminary framework for output handling
Prepare a framework for having modular outputs. Essentially, the main
application uses a output-type object to format strings for the
preamble, the actual data items, and a "postamble" (finalizer). The
printing of that representation, again, is up to the main application,
not the output framework.

Probably, at some point in the future, an interface class will be in
order, but right now, I want to keep it lean - seeing as for the
forseeable future, i3bar is going to be the one and only consumer of
this.
