despite being talked about repeatedly, does not currently exist.
Adding this required adding some new Jam rules to deal with this shared source
directory and headers. I had some fun figuring this out. Despite writing
articles about Jam in the Haiku newsletter a few years ago I still find Jam to
be a PITA at times.
But my solution seems to work pretty well. Basically you just call the rule
UseSharedSource and pass the name of the shared source file you want to use.
This rule sets up the header directories and the right Jam variables for the
source file. You then add the source file to the source list in the Application
rule like any other source file.
I also made the authors list sent to the about window constructor null
terminated instead of passing the size of the array, as suggested by Hugo.

realized that calling it a window may not be strictly correct since it isn't a
decendent of BWindow, but just uses a BAlert. Oh well, it can be changed if
need be.
I'm also checking in the first use of it, in ShowImage. Since ShowImage can
still be compiled for R5 I've added a #ifdef around the new BAboutWindow
related code.
I'm open for suggestions for the interface for this class, well mostly the
constructor. I'm not a big fan of having to specify the number of authors.
For now I'm making the header private, but I don't think it would be a big deal
to expose it publically.
