Implement lazy initialization of global "portdb", "settings" and other
variables that pollute the portage module. This works by initializing the global variables with dummy "proxy" objects that serve as a means to trigger lazy initialization. As soon as the first attribute access or method call occurs on one of the proxy objects, it causes all the proxy objects to be replaced with the real ones. It's possible for an unsupported attribute access or method call on a proxy object to trigger an error, leading to breakage. However, hopefully these such corner cases will negligible (only time will tell). svn path=/main/trunk/; revision=10798
