Simplify debugger classes....

Simplify debugger classes. Directly get the color scheme from the interactive shell (which is created if not already present, anyways). The goal is ultimately to allow the IPython debugger to be a drop-in replacement of the stdlib pdb with the same signature (in particular, this would obviate the need for plugins such as nose-ipdb and pytest-ipdb; nose and pytest could instead let their `--pdb` command line arg take an argument specifying the Pdb (sub)class to use, e.g. `py.test --pdb=IPython.core.debugger.Pdb`). Also deprecate the `Tracer` class (and related utilities), which can be fairly trivially replaced by `IPython.core.debugger.Pdb().set_trace()` (we can let `Pdb` catch `BdbQuit` itself).

      ========================================

      0.8 series

      ========================================

      Release 0.8.4

      =============

      This was a quick release to fix an unfortunate bug that slipped into the 0.8.3

      release.  The ``--twisted`` option was disabled, as it turned out to be broken

      across several platforms.

      Release 0.8.3

      =============

      * pydb is now disabled by default (due to %run -d problems). You can enable

        it by passing -pydb command line argument to IPython. Note that setting

        it in config file won't work.

      Release 0.8.2

      =============

      * %pushd/%popd behave differently; now "pushd /foo" pushes CURRENT directory 

        and jumps to /foo. The current behaviour is closer to the documented 

        behaviour, and should not trip anyone.

      Older releases

      ==============

      Changes in earlier releases of IPython are described in the older file

      ``ChangeLog``.  Please refer to this document for details.
