[Bf-python] Texture module

[alex mole]

OK. I guess I'll try to implement it then [I need it by tuesday... :)]

I'll hack something together just now but after tuesday I'll look at the 
interface more carefully and submit a draft API to this list.

My plan is really just to wrap the underlying Tex and MTex structs [with 
one class for each], and modify Material so that it can return its 
textures as a list. Does that sound like a reasonable idea?
