Filesystem-like pathing and searching for dictionaries

DPath is a library that allows you to access dictionaries similar to using find over a filesystem. The proper documentation is maintained on GitHub: https://github.com/akesterson/dpath-python

Version 1.2 introduces a number of fixes against 1.1:

• List handling has been completely redone. Various builds of 1.1 had fundamentally broken list handling. 1.2 handles list insertions, deletions, and searches as expected.

• The backend path library has been improved to include type information with each path component, so the issue of lists mysteriously being transformed into dictionaries will no longer happen

• The merge function’s filtering has been fixed; before, it was broken, as directory nodes were merged in before filtering leaf nodes, making the filters essentially useless.

• The unit test suite has been expanded.
