- [svn] Fix various bugs in the recursive extraction.
First, 5.0 introduced a regression where it wouldn't find archives hidden
in subdirectories. So fix that.
Then recursive extraction would get confused if the archive was a ONE_ENTRY
and we decided to wrap it or just extract it here. Fix that too: the
extractor keeps track of where it thinks it's extracting to, and then the
handler will change that if necessary.
There are unit tests for all this.
I twiddled some other small thing while I was at it but now I forget what.

- [svn] Make dtrx -v print *something*.
paulv wants it to act like tar -v. I'm not yet convinced this is a good
idea because it makes less sense with dtrx moving things around on you. It
could do an ls for you, of course, but... why? But it definitely is weird
to have it be silent.

- [svn] At work I was getting an unhelpful "No such file or directory" error when I
tried to extract an .exe. It turns out this was because I didn't have
cabextract installed. This inspired a few changes:
* BaseExtractor now raises an ExtractorUnusable error when this happens.
* Various points in the code deal with this properly.
* The loop for trying extractors will now report all the errors it got, if
extraction is unsuccessful, to better help you understand why.
Also snuck in a bug fix where things weren't being cleaned properly with a
half-extracted archive.
Also got my version number situation in order, in anticipation for the next
release, which may be a while yet but at least I won't have to worry about
it then.

- [svn] Minor clean-ups. The most important of these is that we now have a better
strategy for dealing with the pathological case of having many extraction
destinations taken: after trying various names with number suffixes, we'll
finally resort to mkstemp/mkdtemp to get what we need. This still isn't
guaranteed to work but it's much more reliable. Also print out a warning
for the user when we extract to some weird directory.
