Module copyable

This is a shortcut for arranging to serialize third-party clases. 'copier' must be a callable which accepts an instance of the class you want to serialize, and returns a tuple of (typename, state_dictionary). If it returns a typename of None, the original class's fully-qualified classname is used.

Tell PB that unslicerfactory can be used to handle Copyable objects that provide a getTypeToCopy name of 'typename'. 'unslicerfactory' must be a callable which takes no arguments and returns an object which provides IUnslicer.

Tell PB that 'factory' can be used to handle Copyable objects that provide a getTypeToCopy name of 'typename'. 'factory' must be a callable which accepts a state dictionary and returns a fully-formed instance.

'cyclic' is a boolean, which should be set to False to avoid using a Deferred to provide the resulting RemoteCopy instance. This is needed to deserialize Failures (or instances which inherit from one, like CopiedFailure). In exchange for this, it cannot handle reference cycles.

Tell PB that remote_copy_class is the appropriate RemoteCopy class to use when deserializing a Copyable sequence that is tagged with 'typename'. 'remote_copy_class' should be a RemoteCopy subclass or implement the same interface, which means its constructor takes no arguments and it has a setCopyableState(state) method to actually set the instance's state after initialization. It must also have a nonCyclic attribute.
