This is a major feature release with many enhancements and fixes since
1.3.0:

User-visible changes:
=====================
* Now creates autolinks to unknown CamelWords and links, just like
TiddlyWiki does. Turned off' by default to avoid surprising existing
users. You can enable this behavior from the admin page.
* Metadata updates are now automatically applied. No longer have to
shutdown wiki and run "wik updatemeta" from the command line.
* Added user-defined log filters on admin page.
* Added StyleSheet link on admin page for convenience.
* Added button on admin page to clear rendercache.
* Stricter parsing of CamelWords -- now accepts alphabetical only.
* Fixed cache handling in SiteTitle()/SiteSubtitle()
* Tags "nocache" and "norss" changed to "-cache" and "-rss".
* Added "<<div>>" and "<<span>>" macros.
* Fixed "<<nowiki>>" handling.

Internal changes
=======================
* New plugin API make it easy to add user-defined macros. (see
http://wikklytext.com/WritingPlugins)
* API Changes
** URL resolvers now return linktype as string ('internal',
'external', or 'newitem') instead of True/False to allow more types of
links. (For backwards compatibility, True/False are still accepted.)
** wikStore_tw_re can no longer be used directly. wikStore_tw has
always been marked as the official interface; if you are using
wikStore_tw_re just change to wikStore_tw, it has the same API.
* "var_get_*" and "var_set_*" functions moved into WikContext. Old
functions left in place for now to avoid breaking API, but marked as
deprecated.
* Added file locking to wikStore_tw
* Updated wikStore_sqlite for multiprocess use.
* Added locking to wikStore_files
* More comprehensive time handling in wikStore_tw to account for many
variations in TiddlyWiki formats.
* Fixes for CherryPy 3.1-final
