Support DAZzle 8.0

Fix ToZip4 attribute of status return info.  Doc tweaks.

Drop Windows platform requirement, as Endicia now has a Mac client.
(Besides, server-side apps may want to generate XML, and you can
submit jobs to a Windows client via Samba from anywhere.)

Added Shipment.run(), so you can print multiple batches in one go.  Also
tweaked some ugly bits in the docs.

Application launching, batch submission, and batch status retrieval.
You can now do anything with DAZzle that doesn't require async
processing.  (Well, you can do async/queued too, it's just not
really practical to retrieve status info yet.)  Hurrah!

Get DAZzle configuration info from the Windows registry

Full customs form support.  Re-org options to make them more self-
documenting.  I should now be able to start trying to send some
XML to DAZzle...

Rename ''DocInfo'' -> ''Option'', re-org customs and insurance.

Document ``Batch`` and ``Shipment`` objects.  Prettify XML for easy
reading.  Add ``MailClass()``.  Demo how to adapt application objects
for shipping.

Implement all tags except some customs-related ones.  Automatic batch
splitting based on global criteria (such as layout file).  Invertable
DocInfo objects (via ~ to negate an item).  Infrastructure to support
docinfos that only apply to a second pass (e.g. after address info is
known).

PyDicia: a library for printing shipping labels, envelopes, postage,
and more, using endicia.com's DAZzle client.  This initial version
doesn't do anything yet except provide the core XML generation
engine, and a skeleton/todo-list for the docs.  But most of what's
listed in the doc skeleton will be ultra-trivial syntax sugaring of
the core engine.  The remainder of the implementation will then be
simply a matter of handling transmission of the XML to and from the
DAZzle client.
