I am going to forbid plug-ins from being installed directly in the root
of the plug-ins/ directory. They will have to be installed in a
subdirectory named the same as the entry point binary.
This may seem useless for our core plug-ins which are nearly all
self-contained in single binaries, but this is actually a necessary
restriction to eliminate totally the DLL hell issue on Windows. Moving
core plug-ins in subfolders is only a necessary consequence for it.

...in both the core and libgimp.
Images now know what the default mode for new layers is:
- NORMAL for empty images
- NORMAL for images with any non-legacy layer
- NORMAL_LEGAVY for images with only legacy layers
This changes behavior when layers are created from the UI, but *also*
when created by plug-ins (yes there is a compat issue here):
- Most (all?) single-layer file importers now create NORMAL layers
- Screenshot, Webpage etc also create NORMAL layers
Scripts that create images from scratch (logos etc) should not be
affected because they usually have NORMAL_LEGACY hardcoded.
3rd party plug-ins and scripts will also behave old-style unless they
get ported to gimp_image_get_default_new_layer_mode().
with proper value names. Mark most values as _BROKEN because they use
weird alpha compositing that has to die. Move GimpLayerModeEffects to
libgimpbase, deprecate it, and set it as compat enum for GimpLayerMode.
Add the GimpLayerModeEffects values as compat constants to script-fu
and pygimp.
and clean up the formatting of the call and the lines around it. Now
we can check the various (disabled) export options for regressions
again by changing a single line in gimp_export_image().
- Add new enum GimpComponentType which contains u8, u16, u32 etc.
- Change GimpPrecision to be u8-linear, u8-gamma, u16-linear etc.
- Add all the needed formats to gimp-babl.c
- Bump the XCF version to 5 and make sure version 4 with the old
GimpPrecision enum values is loaded correctly
This change blows up the precision enums in "New Image" and
Image->Precision so we can test all this stuff. It is undecided what
format will be user-visible options in 2.10.
I'm sure some plug-ins need to add their items *not* at the toplevel,
but since making plug-ins really tree-aware is a lot more work than
just fixing insert positions, I went for passing -1 as parent in
almost all cases. And because of laziness...
Created a resource file for plug-ins and a rule to link it to them.
The application icon file is smaller than the default one, there's no
point in doubling the size of a plug-in executable just for an icon.
If no problems turn up, this will close the bug.

Cleaned up some copyright headers and regenerated the parsers in
the ImageMap plugin.
