Implements base.Logic functions in home_settings, site_settings and work This patch implements the base.Logic funtions needed for making logic/key_name.py obsolete. This patch defines the needed functions in home_settings, site_settings and work. All modules in logic/models now have these functions defined. logic/models/site_settings.py now inherits from logic/models/home_settings.py because of their similar connection in the corresponding models. Please note that the self._keyName for these two modules still points to logic/key_name.py since entity_type is still used in views/home.py. A partial_path and link_name were added to HomeSettings as requested by SRabbelier.

def timesince(d, now=None):
    """
    Takes two datetime objects and returns the time between d and now
    as a nicely formatted string, e.g. "10 minutes".  If d occurs after now,
    then "0 minutes" is returned.

    Units used are years, months, weeks, days, hours, and minutes.
    Seconds and microseconds are ignored.  Up to two adjacent units will be
    displayed.  For example, "2 weeks, 3 days" and "1 year, 3 months" are
    possible outputs, but "2 weeks, 3 hours" and "1 year, 5 days" are not.
