Summary: Support for additional parsers

Initial Comment:
When this module was originally coded, there was only
one PEAR wiki parser in town: Text_Wiki.  Now, in
addition to Text_Wiki, there are:

* Text_Wiki_Cowiki
* Text_Wiki_Doku
* Text_Wiki_Tiki
* Text_Wiki_Mediawiki

I think it would be good to add support for those
parsers in this module.  Adding a setting to pick which
parser to use is probably the best option.

A few problems with this idea:
1) The new parsers are only alpha and are very
unstable/incomplete.
2) The default SamplePage and SandBox will only render
correctly for Text_Wiki

A note should be placed on the admin page stating that
Text_Wiki is the recommended parser for now.  Before
using the parser, a check should be performed to
confirm the parser exists.

Another nice thing about this feature is that it will
ease the transition of the phpwebsite-comm wiki to this
module because phpwebsite-comm currently uses Mediawiki
and this module could be set to use a Mediawiki parser.
