[Bf-python] Object/Mesh constructors

[Goat Man]

What about modifier constructors, there is no bpy.data.modifiers.

bpy.ops.object.add_modifier only works on the active selection, but
bpy.context.active_object is readonly, and appending to bpy.context.selected
does nothing.
ob.modifiers.add() also fails.
