When pasting text, the style (bold, material, ...) is maintained, if it was originally copied from Blender.
This fixes the issue of missing copy/paste options for font objects
(they were present back in Blender 2.49)
Reviewers: Severin, campbellbarton, brecht
We have callbacks for that, they also do some checks and help ensure things are done
correctly. Only place where this is assumed not true is blenloader (since here we
may affect refcount of library IDs as well...).
It's needed especially for the menu entry "recover auto save" where you'd like to have the files sorted by date most of the time but it could be useful in other places too.
There should be no functional change in other areas, I just added the missing parameter (FILE_SORT_ALPHA).
Was a request from @sebastian_k at #BCon13, so at least one guy needs it ;)

Make the UI API more consistent and reduce confusion with some naming.
mainly:
- API function calls
- enum values
some internal static functions have been left for now
- clamp selection on entering editmode (Python may have changed).
- BKE_vfont_select_get no longer succeeds with an empty selection
this caused many operators to go ahead and operate on zero size array.
This goes back to ancient era again and such a call isn't
safe for threading and really DAG is to make it sure display
list for dependencies is always there.
- Add paste from system clipboard which behaves like paste from file.
- Paste from file now replaces the selection rather then just adding to the end.
- Move paste operations into the 'Edit' menu.
- Added generic paste functions: font_paste_wchar, font_paste_utf8.
- Fix paste max length check not taking the selection length into account.
EditFont's use of Curve.len was very confusing, in editmode it
represented the number of characters, in object mode the number of
bytes. add Curve.len_wchar and keep track of both.
Also don't convert the editmode text into utf8 on every keystroke.
Now this is done on exiting editmode or save - to match most other
object types.
This also fixes curves 'body_format' being reported with an invalid size.
