  so we can bootstrap static extensions (including Apache)

o stomped out *main:: variables, moved to Apache.xs as methods

o added methods that simply access members of request_rec
  -method
  -uri
  -protocol
  -path_info
  -filename

  when called in a scalar context, it returns the query string
  when called in a list context, it splits the query_string into key => vairs

o moved parsing code to Apache.xs, and now data is only read when the user
  asks for it with the content() method.

o added method 'content'
  when called in a scalar context, it reads data from the client
  when called in a list context, it splits the content into key => vairs
