* This is a HUGE OMG update and will definitely have unknown side effects.. so this is really only for the strong hearted at this point. Regular people should let the dust settle.
* This has been tested to work with most basic functions. However.. make sure you back up 'everything' before using this. It's that big!
* Essentially we're back at square 1 in the testing phase.. so lets identify things that broke.
the attached patch set is centered around RemoteAdminPlugin and focuses
mainly on making it more robust (i.e. more parameter checking and better
error reporting) but also we've re-implemented the LoadTerrain stuff that
got disabled during the terrain code reworking:
* missing PostInitialize() calls on region modules that were loaded
for regions created via RemoteAdmin's CreateRegion XmlRpc call
* re-implements RemoteAdmin's LoadTerrain XmlRpc call (probably lost
during the TerrainModule rework)
* adds lots more parameter checking and error reporting to RemoteAdmin
* adds a read-only property to RegionApplicationBase so that we can
access the CommsManager
* adds Exceptions to TerrainModule so that we get better error case
feedback (and can report more meaningful errors in turn)
* adds a CheckForTerrainUpdate() call to
TerrainModule.LoadFromFile() to make terrain changes effective
* adds TryGetCurrentScene(LLUUID) to SceneManager so that we can
retrieve Scenes not only by name but also by LLUUID

*Added ability to load regioninfo remotely from a webserver from a single file. See share/RegionLoading/HOWTO_REMOTE_REGION_LOADING.txt for more info and an example file.
