#485: Topic-based pub/sub for IResourceChangeListener

--------------------------+---------------
Resource listeners often will watch events for a limited , well-known set
of resource realms (e.g. `ticket` + `attachment` ) .
The current dispatching strategy (i.e. `match_resource`) is mostly
[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Publish–subscribe_pattern#Message_filtering
content based] . It behaves in `O(r * l)` order of magnitude . This might
lead to a lot of extra (unnecessary) overhead .
A performance improvement could be to allow listeners to register to
dedicated realm channels (i.e.
[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Publish–subscribe_pattern#Message_filtering
topic-based filtering]) , thus turning the dispatch algorithm into `O(l)`
.
PS: We shall not loose the current content-based filtering capabilities ,
so in advance I advocated using a hybrid strategy .
