Fix a few problems with setEntityLoader
1. Setting entity loader does not increment the refcount on the Python object
passed in. This works only if the object is not deleted. For example, the
following code results in segmentation fault in Python interpreter when
attempting to process any document:
[[[
def register_entity_loader():
def entity_loader(URL, ID, ctxt):
...
libxml2.setEntityLoader(entity_loader
register_entity_loader()
]]]
2. setEntityLoader() does not verify if the passed object is callable. If it
is not, current implementation attempts to call it anyway and failing that,
silently moves on to default entity loader. Attached patch makes
setEntityLoader raise ValueError exception if non-callable object is
passed.
3. In debug mode, pythonExternalEntityLoader() outputs the result object to
stderr, while the messages before and after the object (description + newline)
go to stdout. Attached patch makes them all go to stdout.

To build on an Unixised setup:
./configure ; make ; make install
To build on Windows:
see instructions on win32/Readme.txt
To assert build quality:
on an Unixised setup:
run make tests
otherwise:
There is 3 standalone tools runtest.c runsuite.c testapi.c, which
should compile as part of the build or as any application would.
Launch them from this directory to get results, runtest checks
the proper functionning of libxml2 main APIs while testapi does
a full coverage check. Report failures to the list.
