Factored '_set_command_options()' out of 'get_command_obj()'.
Added 'reinitialize_command()' -- lets us "push" option values in
a controlled, safe way; this is a small change to the code, but
a big change to the Distutils philosophy of passing option values
around. The preferred mode is still definitely to "pull" options
from another command (eg. "install" fetches the base build directory
from "build"), but it is now feasible to "push" options onto another
command, when you know what's best for it. One possible application
will be a "config" command, which pokes around the system and pushes
values (eg. include and library directories) onto the "build" command.
Added 'dump_option_dicts()' method (for debugging output).
