#3443: Create bindings to use libabiword for file conversion

libabiword can read and write almost any imaginable document format out
there. This can be massively useful when used for our full text indexing
support: just use libabiword for all formats you want to index, let
libabiword convert them plain text, and index that! This gives you support
for all files in one go (ODT, Doc, RTF, WPD, and even PDF if needed).
Currently we do not have a proper mechanism to use this functionality from
Python based code. Utility code and bindings should be written to allow
that
