The /bin/openshot file now has much more detailed error handling, and
much better outputting of error messages.  If MLT won't import, it will
now say so.  If a Python 2.5 syntax compatibility issue happens, it will
now say so, etc...  So, I expect this to dramatically help out users who
are having trouble launching OpenShot for 1 reason or another.

Title:
  When openshot fails to launch, more debug info is needed

Status in OpenShot Video Editor:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  When openshot fails to launch, more debug info is needed.  Currently,
  a simple error message is displayed that tells the user to install
  OpenShot.  The actual error is hidden from the user, and this makes
  trouble shooting a launch failure very difficult.
