    * Make it possible to give names to vlc objects (psz_object_name · 79c1ddfd

    already existed but was only used by modules as far as is know). This
    is done in the module_Need function. Needed module names now have this
    syntax: '<module>[@<name>]'. If the @<name> part is present, once the
    needed module is found it will change p_this->psz_object_name to <name>.
    In about 99% of the module_Need calls, p_this is the module's parent
    object so this is ok. The remaining calls won't use this syntax so it's
    ok i guess :)
    
    * Add new vlc_object_find_name function. It works like vlc_object_find
    but uses a string (name) instead of an integer (type) as its second
    argument.
    
    * Change the marq, mosaic and logo commands in rc.c. They now take the
    target object's name as first argument. Example:
    
    Launch vlc with:
    ./vlc -I rc --no-audio --sub-filter "marq@test{marquee=Hello}:marq@testouille{marquee=Test}" ~/media/redefined-nintendo.mpg
    
    Then issue the following command to move the second marq:
    marq-x testouille 100
    
    (and while testing I fixed #745)
