Do not use .message attributes in exceptions, deprecated in 2.6

Original Launchpad bug 407836: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ipython/+bug/407836
Reported by: fdo.perez (Fernando Perez).

Running the test suite under 2.6 shows:

/home/fperez/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/IPython/kernel/error.py:127: DeprecationWarning: BaseException.message has been deprecated as of Python 2.6

The code reads:

class CompositeError(KernelError):
def init(self, message, elist):
Exception.init(self, *(message, elist))
self.message = message
self.elist = elist

I don't want to change that for 0.10 because I'm pretty sure I'll break something. But for 0.11, we should clean this up.

I will look at this for 0.11.
