[Bf-python] Patch to add new functions,

[Campbell Barton]

Hi,

I have added some functions to the Object module.
Now you can select and unselect objects
getSel(), setSel(1/0), .sel
and Object.Centre(0/1/2)
All Epydocs have been updated.

 Eg...
Object.Get()[0].setSel(1)
Object.Get()[1].setSel(0)

print ob.getSel()

# or as a Class Variable,
# Toggle selection eg.
for ob in Object.Get()
  if ob.sel:
    ob.sel = 0
  else:
    ob.sel = 1

This would be usefull for different things, but mainly when dealing with 
large scenes.
It would be trivial to make a GUI script that Could load and save the 
current selection into different slots.

The next functions implimentation might be disputed (sorry not to split 
the patch up)
ob.centre(0/1/2)

This is basic in the way that it hooks the docentre() function.
0:Object->Centre
1:Centre->Object
2:Centre->Cursor

The issue with this is that it affects all selected objects so it relys 
on setSel() for any control of exacthy what is affected.

eg
Window.SetCurserPos(1,2,3)
# Deselect all
for ob in Object.Get()
  ob.sel = 0

# Select the 1st object
ob = Object.Get()[0]
ob.sel = 1
Object.Centre(2) # Centre around cursor.
