In principle, GTK3 is the way forward, and GTK2 is officially
deprecated, though still maintained. In practice however, GTK3
is often unbearably buggy; e.g. on my system, combo boxes
don't ever roll up in GTK3 windows. So I have added support
for both.
This required a few minor changes to the core, namely:
* GTK wants to know beforehand whether a menu item is a check
menu item or a regular one.
* GTK doesn't give us an easy way to execute something after
any event is processed, so an explicit idle timer is added.
This is a no-op on Win32.
* A few function signatures were const'ed, since GTK expects
immutable strings when converting to Glib::ustring.
The libslvs library and CDemo program can now be built by Autotools. A few
code changes were needed for this: C++ comments in C code had to be
converted, constraint.cpp required some massaging, and fltkutil.cpp needed
a stub for InitHeaps().
The SolveSpace top-level directory was getting a bit cluttered, so
following the example of numerous other free-software projects, we move the
main application source into a subdirectory and adjust the build systems
accordingly.
Also, got rid of the obj/ directory in favor of creating it on the fly in
Makefile.msvc.
