#481706: Path_node_delete can leave abandoned URL aliases

Minor issues:

Path system:

#464164: path.inc your time has come
#320331: Turn custom_url_rewrite_inbound and custom_url_rewrite_outbound into hooks
#106559: drupal_lookup_path() optimization - skip looking up certain paths in drupal_lookup_path()
