[Helma-user] onSessionStart / onSessionEnd

[kRAkEn/gORe]

yeah i know, this is the update version.
it works on my side, and a new session ISN't created for every
request. i've tested widely (adding stuff to session.data in the
onSessionStart) and it works ok. i can see it calling on a new request
that don't have a session already allocated, and after the timeout, it
calls the cleanup onSessionEnd. you can't put complex things in that,
but i just needed a function to get told when a new session starts so
i can fill session things up (basically a map engine), and let the map
engine clean up when the session end, freeing up the remaining files
previously allocated by the user
