Overriding stack trace on streaming.py

The "raise exception" is overriding the stack trace and hiding all errors, a simple "raise" should be fine.

_read_loop really didn't seem right, but somehow kinda worked. It now works when pointed at user streams too.

searches, where Twitter will take longer than five seconds even to
send a response header.

My preferred default would be no timeout at all, but if we are to
have one then five minutes seems more reasonable than five seconds.

when using OAuth (because the nonce has been used before, and the timestamp
is no longer correct).

Improve the options handling in the streaming.Stream class, so that false values can be used. (In particular I want to be able to pass timeout=None, but one might also reasonably want to pass zero for some of the other options.)

Fixed default status parser to use user model from the model factory. This enables use of one's own user models.

Closes #38

Note: this may break some code that just passes this options
by position rather than keyword.

It should now be possible to authenticate with
the streaming API by either using BasicAuthHandler or
OAuthHandler.
