auto-properties

I started a new module AutoProps to start development on this issue. I 
is currently only a simple module that will read a subversion config. 
But there is no functionality in there. Only a test. We will get a hash 
of filepatterns/properties. So the next step is to evaluate the itempath 
against all filepatterns and to add all properties if the filepattern 
matches.

Discussion:

* if mulitple patterns match, all properties of all matching patterns 
should be added
* per file pattern multiple properties can be specified, seperated by 
semicolon
* What should happen if the same property is added twice
   * with the same value
   * with a different value
* where to integrate?
   * Dumpfile::_add_handler
   * Node::Set_initial_properties
* can properties change in a subversion "change" node?

Since I'm not the best PERL programmer I just have started the 
development. Anybody out there, to pick it up from here ;-)


Best regards
Dirk
