Title: Fix Retweet Return Information 

Twitter.retweet should return the original status with tweet.retweeted_status returning the newly created tweet information (including the new id, so we can delete the retweet directly if the user wants). Right now, the new status information is completely removed.

The API returns the information reversed (the new status information, with 'retweeted_status' containing the original tweet information), but I figure doing that would mess up a lot of existing code
