WIP v1

Here's a work-in-progress script I hacked together today.

Features:
- You may use -l or --local to only search nightlies on disk (no Internet
access).
- Revisions may be specified in a multitude of ways:  -rM:N; -rM -rN; -rM:rN;
-rM
- Sanity check (verify starting revision works, ending revision fails) using -s
or --sanity-check.
- See "autospade -h" for help.
- Does NOT invoke WebKit.app, but instead invokes Safari.app with a
DYLD_FRAMEWORK_PATH set to the Resources directory on the mounted image.

Warts:
- Won't work on Windows.
- Doesn't use webkitdirs.pm or any other scripts in WebKitTools/Scripts.
- You must modify $nightlyDirectory to the location where you keep your nightly
builds.
- Creates too many temp files (only one is needed per run).
- Potentially dodgy code (hacked together today).
- Older WebKit nightlies (on OS X) do not work with Safari 3 Public Beta due to
missing API.  Testing (spading?) works much better with Safari 2.

Do we want to check this in so others may hack on it quickly as well?
