Masterview devel - Sep 2006 - Directive metadata and namespaces status

I think I''ve got something fairly workable, but I want to do some
additional
testing tomorrow before committing.

Changes are mainly in the DirectiveRegistry and its loading mechanism;
loading custom directive into a diff namespace basically just worked once
the new metadata mechanisms were hooked in, no template parser changes
needed.

DirectiveMetadata will be added as a mixin to DirectiveBase; when I commit
that, I''m also going to shift the DirectivePriorities declarations out
of
DirectiveHelpers into DirectiveMetadata.  Added support for priority as part
of metadata mechanism so that default med priority is configured as
currently done; directives which want a diff priority can simply declare it
in their metadata rather than needed a priority method.
