Cleanup pylint's warnings over astroid codebase

Some of the messages were disabled in pylintrc, since they're not
very useful for our case. Other parameters, such as the number of
arguments / statements / attributes etc were configured so that they
won't be too restrictive for our codebase, since making the code
to respect them right now requires too much development changes,
which is not justified by the end result.
Closes issue #284.
