Title: Split maskna support out of mainline into a branch

As per earlier discussion on the list, this PR attempts to remove *exactly and only* the maskna-related code from numpy mainline:
http://mail.scipy.org/pipermail/numpy-discussion/2012-May/062417.html

The suggestion is that we merge this to master for the 1.7 release, and immediately "git revert" it on a branch so that it can be modified further without blocking the release.

The first patch does the actual maskna removal; the second and third rearrange things so that PyArray_ReduceWrapper does not end up in the public API, for reasons described therein.

All tests pass with Python 2.4, 2.5, 2.6, 2.7, 3.1, 3.2 on 64-bit Ubuntu. The docs also appear to build. Before I re-based this I also tested against Scipy, matplotlib, and pandas, and all were fine.
