4821	Add hyphenation option to djago.utils.text.wrap and a default filter hyphenatedwordwrap	django@…	nobody	"Ned Batchelder recently released an implementation of [http://www.nedbatchelder.com/code/modules/hyphenate.html Frank Liang's hyphenation algorithm for python] into the public domain.
This patch includes this file as django.utils.hyphenate and adds an optional argument keyword argument 'hyphenate' to django.utils.text.wrap to do the obvious. It defaults to False. A new default filter is added hyphenatedwordwrap which does the obvious as well.

There are internationalization issues which still need to be worked out, documentation and a unit test to be added as well.
I may not be able to work on the internationalization part so I am posting the patch as I have it working now.
