Support the new zc.buildout 1.4.0+ include-site-packages option, and more.

--------
Features
--------

- Support the new zc.buildout 1.4.0+ include-site-packages option.

- Use the new zc.buildout 1.4.0+ path sorting algorithm, which puts
  site-package dependency paths after the other dependency paths (but before
  extra paths, as before). This can reduce or eliminate problems with
  packages in site-packages causing other dependencies to be masked with the
  versions in site-packages.

- Support escaping "$" with "$$" in templates. This is particularly useful
  for *NIX shell scripts.

- Support specifying local options in templates without braces (e.g.,
  "Hello $world" is now equivalent to "Hello ${world}".

-----
Fixes
-----

- Clarify that the recipe does not support the relative-paths options.

- Make tests less susceptible to timing errors.
