Scene.set_frame(x, update=False)

>From the Zen of Python (`import this`):
- Explicit is better than implicit.
- Special cases aren't special enough to break the rules.
- In the face of ambiguity, refuse the temptation to guess.
- There should be one-- and preferably only one --obvious way to do it.

So I wholeheartedly agree with deprecating frame_current and incorporating
its behavior into set_frame.

Cheers,
Daniel
