* Separate out selection flags from file type flags, was bothering me since forever ;)
* Also renamed ACTIVEFILE to SELECTED_FILE to better reflect actual usage in code.
* Fix crash introduced with last commit, better check for valid selection
Patch from Alexander Kuznetsov: Toggle selection rather than just extending.
Implements behaviour that unintendedly was available with previously using macro operator for selection. This was removed and now the functionality is properly implemented.
Patch accepted with minor changes:
1. Used enum rather than #defines and added value for removing from selection (deselect)
2. Moved if (select) outside file_select_do and improved check for whether last file in selection is actually selected. (Necessary since toggle can deselect and toggle select should still make file active)
3. Additionally fixed check in file_select_invoke to be consistent with border select.
Patch from Alexander Kuznetsov: Real-time File Selection, thanks for the contribution.
Still made a few minor changes from latest patch:
1. Rename SELECTEDFILE to HILITED_FILE, since we are not actually selecting the file, but previewing/highliting the possible selection.
2. Also made this clearer by not drawing the files as selected, but just highlight them.
3. Removed the Select/Deselect toggle when clicking on file, will be committed separately soon.
Double click in File Window also loaded a file on double-click at
a directory.
The operator for it was using a Macro mistakingly here. On any double
click, it selected the item first and then executed load.
By default, any double click action has to rely on the first click
being properly handled before. Simply removing this macro, and assign
the "exec operator" to the double-click event works as expected.
A double click on a directory then just shows the dir (because the exec
requires an 'active' file item).
Bringing back missing feature: Create new directory by typing a not existing name into the directory button.
Note: Small issue still with autocomplete -> if typing the new directory directly after autocomplete, it doesn't execute the operator yet.
Also fixed some minor compile/cleanup issues with warning about signed/unsigned comparison and missing header.
Both stored the filename of the blend file, but G.sce stored the last opened file.
This will make blender act differently in some cases since a relative path to the last opened file will no longer resolve (which is correct IMHO since that file isnt open and the path might not even be valid anymore).
Tested linking with durian files and rendering to relative paths when no files is loaded however we may need to have some operators give an error if they are used on the default startup.blend.

From patch description:
"
Handler is now released on every exit from File Selector. For example pressing ctrl-up and then changing editor type
to another also releases the handler.
When an area is changed from SPACE_FILE, ED_fileselect_exit is called for clean up. It takes function of freeing folder
list and files (before it was done in cancel or exec functions) because they must be released on every exit anyway.
op!=null means cancel or exec was not executed so a handler was not released. ED_fileselect_exit then releases the handler
without changing screens.
"
Thanks!
This runs after changing a property and allows correcting incompatible options.
Returning True will redraw the UI.
Currently this is used for setting the write extension when saving files, so changing the image format also corrects the extension.
The same is accessible from python where its used when saving SVG/EPS/PNG files.
This fixes: [#23828] obj export problems, [#23760] Exporting OBJ and filetype ending
also fixed document submission operator.
Now the filename in the file selector is the one used for writing this means we remove the "Save Over" popup which could be overlooked too easily.
Instead display the filename field with red tint, and a note in the tooltip.
* rename BLI_gethome to BLI_getDefaultDocumentFolder to better reflect how this function is used
* replaced BLI_gethome with getenv("HOME") on Linux and Mac where it retrieves location of bookmarks that are inserted as system bookmarks. BLI_gethome was a thin wrapper around these and in this case the user's home directory is what is actually wanted.
* the default properties of the file operator now only contain the "filepath", which means only the complete path to a file is returned.
* "filename" and "directory" has been added to the link/append operator - the only place it was used.
* sequence operators still work on the "files", which was custom property passed to the file operator anyway.
* have tested sequence loading, image loading and append/link - please report if there are any issues
path -> filepath (for rna and operators, as agreed on with elubie)
path -> data_path (for windowmanager context functions, this was alredy used in many places)
- smooth scrolling to editable button after new directory is created
(for now scrolling starts as soon as the mouse moves back to the file list area, for Matt to check if immediate scrolling is possible)
- fix for autocomplete directory, show first matching part if directory doesn't exist, otherwise won't work for directories starting with the same prefix like textures_walls and textures_grass for example.
Select from last selection. This new setting allows to select all files from the last selected to the current. (Works like SHIFT+SELECT in Windows file browser)
Keymap is LEFTMOUSE+ALT for now since LEFTMOUSE+CTRL is already used for renaming (like in outliner)
Only source/blender/editors/ dir, should not give errors on different platforms
Only removing: UI_*.h, ED_*.h, WM_*.h, DNA_*.h, IMB_*.h, RNA_*.h, PIL_*.h
