Add more property aliases and do them properly (no more lambdas and string lookups) which means we can remove `_alias`. This commit also defines `__slots__` for all classes which should prevent assignation of invalid attributes with an AttributeError (more friendly than silently doing the wrong thing). Finally, it cleans up all the property defs to use Ben's preferred decorator style.

gpiozero
========
A simple interface to everyday GPIO components used with Raspberry Pi.
Created by `Ben Nuttall`_ of the `Raspberry Pi Foundation`_, `Dave Jones`_, and
other contributors.
Latest release
==============
The latest release is **v0.8.0 beta 3** released on 16th October 2015.
About
=====
With very little code, you can quickly get going connecting your physical
components together::
from gpiozero import LED, Button
led = LED(2)
button = Button(3)
button.when_pressed = led.on
button.when_released = led.off
The library includes interfaces to many simple everyday components, as well as
some more complex things like sensors, analogue-to-digital converters, full
colour LEDs, robotics kits and more.
Install
=======
First, install the dependencies::
sudo apt-get install python-pip python3-pip python-w1thermsensor python3-w1thermsensor python-spidev python3-spidev
Install with pip::
sudo pip install gpiozero
sudo pip-3.2 install gpiozero
Both Python 3 and Python 2 are supported. Python 3 is recommended!
