Summary: canvas get method

Initial Comment:
This adds a "get" method to canvases (demo patch attached).  The attributes "isabstraction" and a pointer to "this" canvas could be added (but I haven't run into a need for them yet).  Mouse position and click status (relative to the canvas) would be handy for visible windows, but I don't know how to do that from c.

Message:
Ok, fixed a segfault and added a demo showing how the patch can be used to
create send/receive names with more elegant scoping than $0 provides. (See
tf/test.pd.)
