what about adding the "pants module" as an example?

Updated block_example and page_example modules.


Still to go:
- fileupload.module
- filter_example.module
- multipage_form_example.module
- node_example.module
- nodeapi_example.module
- xmlrpc_example.module

Pants module is cool, and gets across a lot of concepts, but imo isn't
appropriate for API documentation.

and before I get flamed for that, I don't mean inappropriate as "OMG
PANTS?!?! Won't someone think of the children!!!" I mean it as in each
example module in the API docs communicates one specific concept, and is
only a few functions in length. Pants module covers everything from
hook_user to XML-RPC. It's more of a tutorial than an example.

Here's a start on nodeapi_example.module. It should be working, except
it isn't. :P For some reason, every time I save the node settings
options, it saves it as nodeapi_example_blog_blog which of course
doesn't work. But even correcting manually doesn't seem to be working
either.
