There is a bunch of internal refactoring going on too:
* No longer use operators to handle these directory and file fields, only makes
things more complicated than they should be.
* Handle autocomplete partial/full match deeper in the UI code
* Directory field still does not keep focus, that's for another time to fix,
you can already do pretty quick keyboard only navigation with the file field.

This adds functionality to tab-autocomplete folders in the file browser file
field, and the ability to autocomplete .blend files and their sub folders while
linking. If only one match of a blend or a folder is found, it is opened, which
applies to wildcards in the file field now.

* fix old bug: wrong layout that could happen when switching between thumbnail view and list view. This caused the layout to be recalculated sometimes and the items being moved. Reason was that the layout was wrongly initialized without the scroll bars, so calculated wrongly.
node materials.
Area and region listener callbacks now get the screen and area pointers passed, so
they can do more fine grained checks to see if redraw is really needed, for example
depending on the 3D view drawtype.

- storage.c: Simplify BLI_dir_contents and make it and its internal subsidiary routines reentrant
- Moved common code for disposal of a struct direntry to new routine BLI_free_filelist in storage.c, and put calls to it in interface_icons.c and filelist.c
- Took out inclusion of BLI_fileops_types.h from BLI_fileops.h and put it explicitly into .c files that need it (which turned out to be only 7 of the 35 files that were including the former)
from Lawrence D'Oliveiro (ldo)
More use of bool type, necessitating adding inclusion of BLI_utildefines.h, or moving it up in the inclusion order if it was already included, in various places
- storage.c: make some variables only used in bli_builddir local to that
- storage.c: BLI_file_descriptor_size should allow 0 as a valid file descriptor
- path_util.c: make pointers to non-reentrant storage returned from folder routines const, necessitating making variables holding these returned pointers const elsewhere as well
- path_util.c: BLI_string_to_utf8 closes iconv context in case of conversion error
- blf_lang.c: fill_locales routine now has its own "languages" local variable to construct paths (was stealing internal storage belonging to BLI_get_folder before)

- now each editor has own settings for "show panel header" and
"show panel background", and colors+alpha for this.
- this setting used to be global for all editors, but it can conflict
with looks of specific editors.
- Now you can set for editors to show panels with a 100% transparent
tool/properties region.
Note: read XML theme files now might get an error, Campbell will fix.
- use TRUE/FALSE rather than 1/0
- WM_operator_properties_create_ptr rather than WM_operator_properties_create since the pointers available.
- remove redundant strlen()
* Windows installer not working for non-admin users and multiple users
* Addon scripts not installing next to user configuration
* Portable install not being taken into account in all places
The main problem was the windows installer was installing system scripts in
AppData next to the user configuration directory, which is not shared between
users. Now these are installed in ProgramFiles, and only addon scripts added
by the users go to AppData.
On all platforms, addon scripts were sometimes getting installed between
system scripts, because the scripts folder in the executable directory was
given precedence over the user configuration folder, that is no longer done
now. So addons now behave like user configuration, they are preserved even
if you download a newer build of the same blender version.
If you have an installation of 2.57 on windows, the addon install location
will not change until we do the version bump to 2.58, to avoid conflicts with
the existing the installed 2.57 version.
The old behavior of giving precedence to the local folder was done to support
portable install, where all configuration is written to the local folder. This
is now implemented differently: if and only if a "config" folder exists in the
local folder, portable install will be assumed, and files will only be written
to that local folder.
* 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
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).
