Rename the type filter to type_debug

Browse source 
Because we add the names of all filters to the callable whitelist used
by safe_eval, adding a filter named type makes it so code calling "type()"
gets eval'd.  We can't think of a way to exploit this but it's
sufficiently sketchy that we're renaming it in case someone smarter than
us can think of a problem.
