Abstracts some compatability issues for Python2.4 - Python2.6.
The ``json`` module was added in Python2.6, which previously was in a seperate
package and called ``simplejson``. This hack abstracts the difference so you
can use the ``json`` module generically like this:
>>> from compat import json
>>> json.dumps({'hello': 'world'})
'{"hello": "world"}'
In Python 2.6 the ``parse_qs()`` function was moved from the ``cgi`` module to
the ``urlparse`` module. Although ``cgi.parse_qs()`` is still available and
only raises a ``PendingDeprecationWarning``, we still provide some
future-proofing here so you can import ``parse_qs()`` generically like this:
>>> from compat import parse_qs
>>> parse_qs('hello=world&how=are+you%3F')
{'how': ['are you?'], 'hello': ['world']}
