Description

Using composition editors relies on undocumented assumptions
about the internal implementations of libsvn_client APIs.
Whereas if we use notification functions, we can document
exactly what they do and how they're called.

See Mike Pilato's message to dev:

http://subversion.tigris.org/servlets/ReadMsg?msgId=67032&listName=dev

as well as the thread around it for a more detailed argument
why getting rid of the before_ and after_editors in libsvn_client
is a good idea.
