debug.py -- various debugging utilities and debug-related UI code

TODO: split into several modules in a debug package.
(Some of the functions here should logically be moved into ops_debug.py.)

@version: $Id$
@copyright: 2004-2009 Nanorex, Inc.  See LICENSE file for details.

Names and behavior of some functions here (print_compact_traceback, etc)
are partly modelled after code by Sam Rushing in asyncore.py
in the Python library, but this implementation is newly written from scratch;
see PythonDocumentation/ref/types.html for traceback, frame, and code objects,
and sys module documentation about exc_info() and _getframe().

#e Desirable new features:

- print source lines too;

- in compact_stack, include info about how many times each frame has been
previously printed, and/or when it was first seen (by storing something in the
frame when it's first seen, and perhaps incrementing it each time it's seen).

History:

Created by Bruce. Added to by various developers, especially Will.

Bruce 071107 split out two modules by Will:
- objectBrowse.py
- scratch/api_enforcement.py

    Reload module (given as object or as name),
    but at most once per user-event or redraw, and only if debug_flags.atom_debug.
    Assumes w/o checking that this is a module it's ok to reload, unless the module defines _reload_ok as False,
    in which case, all other reload tests are done, but a warning is printed rather than actually reloading it.
       If always_print is True, print a console message on every reload, not just the first one per module.
       If never_again is False, refrain from preventing all further reload attempts for a module, after one reload fails for it.
       If counter is supplied, use changes to its value (rather than to env.redraw_counter) to decide when to reload.
       If check_modtime is True, the conditions for deciding when to reload are used, instead, to decide when to check
    the module's source file's modtime, and the actual reload only occurs if that has changed. (If the source file can't
    be found, a warning is printed, and reload is only attempted if never_again is False.)
       WARNING about proper use of check_modtime:
    if module A imports module B, and A and B are only imported after this function is called on them
    with check_modtime = True, and the counter increases and B's source file has been modified,
    then the developer probably wishes both A and B would be reloaded -- but nothing will be reloaded,
    since A has not been modified and that's what this function checks. When A is later modified, both will be reloaded.
       To fix this, the caller would need to make sure that, before any import of A, this function is called on both A and B
    (either order is ok, I think). We might someday extend this function to make that task easier, by having it record
    sub-imports it handles. We might use facilities in the exprs module (not currently finished) as part of that. #e
       Usage note: this function is intended for use by developers who might modify
    a module's source code and want to test the new code in the same session.
    But the default values of options are designed more for safety in production code,
    than for highest developer convenience. OTOH, it never reloads at all unless
    ATOM_DEBUG is set, so it might be better to revise the defaults to make them more convenient for developers.
    See cad/src/exprs/basic.py for an example of a call optimized for developers.
