Translating the report handler to an indirected model.

I've provided backward compatibility with the old
handler.

The only terminus type that currently exists for reports
is the 'code' terminus, which is used to process reports
in the style of the old handler.  At some point, we should
likely switch at least some of these report types (e.g., 'store')
to terminus types.
