cmds.addAttr should return the created attribute.

[mischakolbe1]

Currently the addAttr-command does not return the attribute that it creates.

In this example the variable "plug" will be empty.

>>> plug = cmds.addAttr("pCube1", longName="myNewAttr")
>>> print plug

What should happen is that addAttr returns the new plug:

>>> plug = cmds.addAttr("pCube1", longName="myNewAttr")
>>> print plug
"pCube1.myNewAttr"

This way there would be no need to do awkward things like this:

>>> some_node = "pCube1"
>>> attr = "myNewAttr"
>>> cmds.addAttr(some_node, longName=attr)
>>> plug = "{}.{}".format(some_node, attr)

I imagine this must be a quick and easy fix and it would be very appreciated by many TDs.
