 * Remove the random special case
 * Use the array of currently playing items for all cases
 * Convert array items to array API
 * Replace standard searches in sorted arrays by bsearches
 * Size is not yet fixed (next round).

Array
 * Add reset/value and bsearch functions
 * Add foreach helper

- use nearest integer value from integer division (i.e. round() ) in volume and time calculation, looks more accurate that way.

longer does.

- revert 16847, this breaks the activex and mozilla plugins, and passing a argv[0] is a very desirable feature as the path in argv[0] is also used to search for plugins. Typically users can pass on the argv[0] of their programs

time unit

that users of the API can simply pass parameters

Add input_ItemAddOptionNoDup (unused at the moment)
+ free warning fix

Convert the new libvlc API (so, the one that is in src/control) not to use the old libVLC API (the one that is in libvlc.c, er, no, was... ah... maybe it's the internal one... err .... well, it's about vlc for sure...)

Also, make it clearer what is shared and instance-specific

So,
libvlc_t ==> libvlc_global_t
vlc_t ==> libvlc_int_t (internal instance)

p_object->p_libvlc ==> p_object->p_libvlc_globale
p_object->p_vlc ==> p_object->p_libvlc

VLC_OBJECT_VLC ==> VLC_OBJECT_LIBVLC

And by the way, there is some cleanup required :) (ie, some things are created in the global object instead of the instance-specific one)

- added a couple of support APIs in libvlc
- retired XPCOM interface, all scripting now goes through NPObject apis
- new APIs using libvlc (roughly similar to java bindings)

Typo fix in modules/stream_out/bridge.c

- allow for libvlc_exception_t to be NULL in APIs
- remove X11 references from libvlc, as it breaks MacOS X

if (vout_Control VOUT_REPARENT is called giving a Drawable in args)
then 
     that Drawable is used as new parent
otherwise
     DefaultRootWindow will be the parent
     

include/vlc/mediacontrol.h, src/control/mediacontrol_audio_video.c: implement get_/set_rate and get_/set_fullscreen

* video.c: added 1 release object in GetVout
* input.c: added libvlc_get_input_thread helper

* video height/width retrieval
* input playing status check

* libvlc playlist play uses locking

 - simple screenshot function
 - an helper function to check if the input item is playing
