Map based URL resolver class

The class takes a python package, which will be inspected and searched in public modules (not starting with _) for the following variables:

__staticmap__ - dict ({'URL': callable, ...})
__dynamicmap__ - list of tuples ([('regex', callable), ...])
__errormap__ - dict ({int(HTTP-Code): callable, ...})

All of these variables are optional. Conflict resolution rules are as follows:

The modules/packages in a directory are ordered alphabetically
recursing packages are collected immediately
The latest one wins (z over a)

The actual resolver (resolve) works as follows:

First the URL path is looked up in the static map. If found, the callable is returned and we're done
Otherwise the path is fed to every regex in the dynamic map. If a match is found, the match object is attached to the request and the callable is returned
A 404 error is raised
