Class-DBI-Factory-0.99

Changes for version 0.99

handler now mod_perl2 only.
db_Main hooks in data classes now inserted for you.
severely tidied up: everything non-essential removed
mail-sending functions separated out into Class::DBI::Factory::Mailer (mostly to make them optional)
new relationships() method in Factory retrieves useful bits of cdbi meta_info.
all SQLite mentions now SQLite2, to avoid spurious warnings from newer versions.
works much better without config file
all hard work deferred for as long as possible to make cdf fit better into nasty quick data-munging type scripts.
demo application brought up to date, cleaned up, made to work properly
documentation redone. still pretty windy, though.
tests more extensive. still no proper handler tests, though.
