Timer event arguments

[erkyrath]

When you send off a timer event with sched(), you might want to attach arguments to it, to be handed back when the event fires.

You can now do this, slightly awkwardly, using functools.partial.

For example, if func is a code property that takes one argument, then this code will schedule a timer event that calls func("foo"):

sched(1, functools.partial(func, "foo"))

I'm leaving this issue open because I might come up with a better plan. Unfortunately the obvious:

sched(1, func, "foo")

...isn't compatible with the current sched() syntax. Might have to add sched_args() or something.
