[SCIM] Loading 97 tables on startup

[James Su]

First, you should turn off m17n support in uim, which can reduce the 
number to 68.
Second, loading m17n, rawcode, table and uim modules should be very 
fast. pinyin module is a little slow. I'll improve pinyin module to 
support load on demand feature in order to speedup the load process.
Third, you can disable unused module by command line option, for example:

scim -ne pinyin -d

to not load pinyin module.

Maybe I can implement a setup module to let user config which modules 
should be loaded.
