[tsc-devel] CEGUI 0.8 port complete

Hi everyone,

Today I have completed the CEGUI 0.8.x port of TSC. I am going to merge
the `feature-cegui-0.8' branch into the `devel' branch tomorrow.

There might be some minor issues left, but the feature-cegui-0.8 branch
is not the place for bugfixes.

The branch introduces a major change in the editor UI apart from the
bare upgrading. The layouting algorithm for editing an object's
properties failed to work with CEGUI 0.8, and I found the way such
edits are done ugly anyway. I therefore introduced a second side panel
to the editor on the right side which will pop up when you double-click
an editable object in the editor. This way the layouting problem is
solved, and additionally, the long-standing problem of the property
editing widgets running out of thew view -- as could be explored
especially with the particle emitter object -- is gone completely,
as the new side panel is perfectly scrollable.

The runtime linkage problem has been resolved by slightly adapting the
build system's configuration. If you have set LD_LIBRARY_PATH or
edited /etc/ld.so.conf while you were testing on the `feature-cegui-0.8'
branch, please undo such edits now (and in the case of /etc/ld.so.conf,
be sure to re-run the `ldconfig' program after the edit).

Valete,
Quintus
