o Added new module type, MODULE_PROVIDER. This is a module type which
enables other modules, scripts or protocols to call it very
simply. Function needed in the module:
"string|array|multiset query_provides()" - Return the name of the
data this module provides. One existing example is "counter"
(which is the graphical counter module).

Functions available to other modules:
object conf->get_provider(string for);
Get the first (highest priority) provider for "for".
array (object) conf->get_providers(string for);
Dito, but return all matching modules.
void map_providers(string for, string fun, mixed ... args);
Run the function "fun" in all modules providing "for", with the
optional arguments "args".
mixed call_provider(string for, string fun, mixed ... args);
Run the function "fun" in all modules providing "for", with the
optional arguments "args" until a positive response
(!zero). Return the result. This is the main way of calling
functions in provider modules from other places.

o Added new tag - echo. It's usable with one of the following syntaxes:
<echo var='Remote Host'> <echo remote_host> <insert remote_host>
Case doesn't matter and in the first syntax, ' ' and '_' are
interchangable. The available variables are identical to the SSI
<!--#echo var="..." -->
