Use OS paths (linux only for now), merging multiple paths. Init changes regarding options. Reorganised policies.txt a little. Implemented mde.resource.paths to read config from appropriate paths (currently linux only). Changed Init to load options before all other delegates are run and set logging level from options. committer: Diggory Hardy <diggory.hardy@gmail.com>

/** Resource paths module.
*
* Internally to mde code other than code dealing directly with files and this module, paths are
* relative to the mde directory. This module transforms those paths to absolute paths.
*
* Additionally, the intention is to look for all files in two directories: the installation (i.e.
* main data) directory and a user directory (for user-specific configuration). Besides exposing
* both paths and checking in which valid files exist, this module provides some extra mergetag
* functionality to simplify correct reading and writing.
*
* Currently the paths are found as follows: (see codeDoc/paths.txt)
*/
/* Implementation note:
* All paths are stored internally as strings, rather than as an instance of FilePath/PathView once
* the FilePath has served its immediate purpose, since it's more convenient and creating new
* FilePaths for adjusted paths should be no slower than mutating existing ones. */
