ENH: ndim tables in HDFStore
     changes axes_to_index keyword in table creation to axes
     allow passing of numeric or named axes (e.g. 0 or 'minor_axis') in axes
     create_axes now checks for current table scheme; raises if this indexing scheme is violated
     added many p4d tests for appending/selection/partial selection/and axis permuation
     added addition Term tests to include p4d
     add __eq__ operators to IndexCol/DataCol/Table to comparisons
     updated docs with Panel4D saving & issues relating to threading
     supporting non-regular indexables:
       e.g. can index a Panel4D on say [labels,major_axis,minor_axis], rather
            than the default of [items,major_axis,minor_axis]
     support column oriented DataFrames (e.g. queryable by the columns)
BUG: removed table check in select if where is provided (convience really)
     allow types in Term that are datetime-like (e.g. can provide a timetuple method)
     added a warning if you try to select/remove with a where criteria on a legacy table (which isn't supported),
       you must convert to new format
     added versioning ability, 'pandas_version', can't detect future format changes (not a required attribute)
ENH: added meta data attribute saving
