Add new hand-crafted Python bindings

New bindings are Pythonic, supporting iteration, DWIM type conversion,
pretty printing, and so on, where possible.  Updated test suite covers
100% of binding code.  Which is to say: add real Python bindings.

As far as the Lilv API itself is concerned, you can do everything via
Python.  However, more work is needed to make fancy wrappers for parts
of LV2 itself (MIDI, URI map, etc) to be able to run advanced plugins.
