* Qt4 : Use a QTreeWidget instead of a ui to display stats. I hope in that way it will become easier to resize and easier to add stats...

Btw about Qt4 modules, http://wiki.videolan.org/QtIntfTODO and http://wiki.videolan.org/Simple_Preferences have been updated. Give it a look and help us...

    - new WindowID.maximize() and WindowID.unmaximize() actions
    - new WindowID.isMaximized boolean variable
    - doc updated

    - New Panel tag, allowing to group the resizing behaviour of controls
    - Documentation updated accordingly
    - Fixed a memory leak due to CtrlMove/CtrlResize objects

* design change: the current volume is automatically stored on quit now and restored on first playback of the next run, similar to other major media players (closes #989)

Should fix fullscreen on amd64 - closes #670

Partial fix of the wx prefs. The modules settings are shown but not the libvlc ones. refs #918. (yes there is lots of debugs left)

* some GUI improvements, which need further work once the vout-filter-rework is completed. this commit needs compatibility checking with current IB releases, especially for the folks interested in compiling on 10.3.

* Possible (not probable) fix for 934. Can't fix as building vlc on win32 is almost impossible

* For the time being, hide simple open. Better three clicks than confusing 
  things :)

code
qt4/components/extended_panels.cpp: Improved some dagerous string
parsing code. This whole function looks very ad hoc to me at the
moment and should be rewritten in a more robust way. In particular
this function will misbehave if a video filter exists whose name is a
substring of another video filter. This change here just makes it less
likely to crash...

* gui behaviour change: the textfields are no longer disabled if another protocol is enabled through the knobs. the user can click the fields now to switch the protocol. I'm unsure whether this could and should be done in the disc tab as well. closes #914

* hide the fspanel if VLC looses its front app state in fullscreen mode (by using the app switcher, etc.)

Fix size of preference tree items

* switched the middle arrow buttons from faster/slower to backward/forward to reflect the same functionality as the usual controller window, thus a more consistent GUI. Thanks to the6thReplicant from the forum for the hint.

 * skins2/src/generic_layout.cpp: Fixed an old memory leak
This is a forwardport of [18282]

- Do not leak result from utf8_readdir (ALWAYS strdup'ed).

  * utf8_fopen for: galaktos and snapshots
  * vlc_closedir_wrapper for: webintf, mkv, ncurses and gnutls

  releasing it. mutex locks /= 20 on a standard preparse run
* Only create absolutely necessary variables while preparsing
--> Preparse speed *= 4 (with item in disk cache of course)

* Do not rebuild playlist too much while adding a directory. Add a new flag
  to NodeCreate and Add to control this behaviour

For some unknown reason, wxwidgets 2.6.3 always return WXK_NUMPAD_DELETE
even in case normal Delete key was pressed

Please consider backporting just for Win32 binaries.

Fix m3u export

This might not fix it, but it surely should eleviate the problem.
forwardport of [18324]
