 Helloooooooooooo !!

 This patch implements a veeeeeeeery basic Hypergraphs class whose only
 purpose is to draw them. It's very hard to get something meaningful, and I
 implemented it as I needed to draw many many many hypergraphs with less
 than 5 or 6 sets.

 And it takes time to manually go through all the sets, and wonder how it
 should be drawn on a sheet of paper. I have heaps of them. This code made
 my life easier, and that's why I submit it as a patch even though it is
 pretty basic. If somebody thinks that it can prove useful to somebody else
 ...

 In particular, even though I have been thinking hard about this for a long
 time, this patch does not contain any data structure for hypergraphs, nor
 the most basic hypergraphs functions. I haven't had the need to write one
 until now, and I don't want to write code that I do not need, for I don't
 believe that you can write good code that you don't use yourself `^^;`

 .... though I will probably work on that in not so long.

 Have fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuun !

 P.S. : Oh, and this patch also fixes an awkwardness with TikZ and LaTeX :
 if you need to add a package to LaTeX in a `._latex_` method, you can now
 add the package to the preamble in the `._latex_` method itself and
 everything will run smoothly.
