templater: drop unneeded destructuring of argument tuple at buildfilter Because evalfuncarg() accepts an argument tuple, there is little meaning to pass (func, data, filt) in place of ((func, data), filt).

templater: extract helper that evaluates filter or function argument It will be used to get a date tuple from an argument. Perhaps some of "stringify(args[n][0], ...)" can be replaced by this function.

contrib: add showstack extension This allows getting a Python stack trace at any time on Unix by hitting Ctrl-\ (or Ctrl-T on BSDs). Useful for debugging mysterious hangs on the fly.
