Consider signal dispatcher integration

[iapain]

+1 and should be included in v0.4. Signal hooks needs to reside within ORM which means we need to alter quite a bit. I am okay with PyDispatcher but for sure we have to tweak a bit to fit into mongoengine.

I'm working on this now. So far I've extracted Django's dispatch framework into it's own project, and added an extra decorator. Tests and docs coming next.

Usage:
from mongoengine.signals import post_save, post_delete

class SomeDocument(Document):
    ...

@post_save.receive( sender=SomeDocument )
def do_something_save( instance, *args, **kwargs ):
    print instance, 'was just saved'

@post_delete.receive( sender=SomeDocument )
def do_something_delete( instance, *args, **kwargs ):
    print instance, 'was just deleted'

This is now implemented in dev using blinker.
