Title: Use urllib2.Request(data) to post parameters to support larger pad contents

As already per: emirotin/PyEtherpadLite/1

Following Pita/etherpad-lite#157 & Pita/etherpad-lite#214 it is now possible to post arguments rather than encoding all in the URL. This allows for larger pad contents as the URL size is limited.

Pull request includes a minor code change to py_etherpad.py:EtherpadLiteClient:call, to use urllib2.Request(..., data=data)

A unittest is added that creates a pad using Edgar Allan Poe's "The Tell-Tale Heart" to illustrate the ability to create larger pads.
