first cut at producing iterator interfaces to Stripe objects -- here I implement one for events

don't yield empty page in bookdata.py's grouper
remove extraneous import in gutenberg.py
expose stripe test key as a module variable to make it easier to create a StripeClient that will be in test mode (sc=StipeClient(api_key=TEST_STRIPE_SK))
