Use area instead of location or room
Since the term "location" was already used for the name of the facet
identifying the area where an element is located, it was vague to also
use that term for a class of elements which serve as those locations.
Instead use the term "area" since it's as descriptive and shorter. Also
avoid the term "room" as a synonym since areas can be outside as well as
indoors. This further implies renaming the location.mpy sample file to
become area.mpy instead.

Simplify coder documentation

guide now that the project is fully PEP-8 compliant, and suggest a
couple of code checking utilities to help keep it clean.

Tighten exceptions for new sockets and reads

Fix log spamming on premature socket disconnect
* lib/mudpy/misc.py(User.flush): When sending on a user's socket raises
BrokenPipeError, their connection has probably dropped. Go ahead and set
their state to disconnecting so the socket will be cleaned up earily.
This also stops spamming the log on every failed write to a broken
socket before it eventually times out in the TCP/IP stack as well.

languages and know how to spot them in a process list with relative
ease.
