Expose the AMF request envelope

[nick]

It would be nice to be able to expose the request to the service method

Patch to print amf request in echo demo

[nick]

I have attached a patch which sets an __amfrequest__ attribute to the calling method (or instance if a methodtype) and also modified the demo echo example to print out the __amfrequest__

class TestService:
    def test(self):
        print self.__amfrequest__

def test2(arg1, arg2):
    print test2.__amfrequest__

from pyamf.remoting.gateway.django import DjangoGateway

services = {
    'test1': TestService,
    'test2': test2
}

gw = DjangoGateway(services)

Same patch - updated against pyamf/branches/release-0.4

A decision has been made to attach the amf request object to the http request in a framework sensitive way.

E.g.:

• Twisted: http_request.amf_request
• Django: As a middleware component
• WSGI: environamf_request?

[nick]

All gateway classes now expose the amf_request object if expose_request is True.

This allows us to be able to supply an amf response object to be able to control headers and such .. but that is for another ticket.

Ok merge, best way to test in the end.
