New logging approach in order to reduce imports from submodules
and use logging without risk of circular import. Only subpackage
that imports from debug is bitmessageqt - because it also uses
debug.resetLogging().
Instead of from debug import logger is now recommended to use:

import logging

logger = logging.getLogger('default')

All subclasses of StoppableThread now have a logger attribute.
All threading related stuff except for set_thread_name()
was moved from helper_threading to network.threads.

Fixed two my mistakes from previous edit of debug in a1a8d3a:

 - logger.handlers is not dict but iterable
 - sys.excepthook should be set unconditionally

PyBitmessage

Bitmessage is a P2P communication protocol used to send encrypted messages to another person or to many subscribers. It is decentralized and trustless, meaning that you need-not inherently trust any entities like root certificate authorities. It uses strong authentication, which means that the sender of a message cannot be spoofed. BM aims to hide metadata from passive eavesdroppers like those ongoing warrantless wiretapping programs. Hence the sender and receiver of Bitmessages stay anonymous.

Development

Bitmessage is a collaborative project. You are welcome to submit pull requests although if you plan to put a non-trivial amount of work into coding new features, it is recommended that you first describe your ideas in the separate issue.
