so, loading the locale preflet is also faster and use less memory.

* BCountry can list the timezones applicable for the country
* BCountry can give its name (for example France), or LocaleName (french (France)). The second one will later be moved to BLocale class along with
most of the locale settings ; but this needs a bit of refactoring.
* The Locale preflet now uses LocaleName instead of Name, since it deals with locales. The time preflet will want only country names, without te
language information, for example.

* The locale roster uses them instead of messing with pointers, to avoid ownership problems
* The Locale preflet works on a copy of the default country instead of altering it directly

* Adjust the B_TRANSLATE macros to take this into account
* Adjust collectkatkeys to take it into account too
Thanks to Ingo for explaining me all the technical details about hiding things in shared objects.

* Hide the CatalogStub::GetCatalog method so that if liblocalestub.a is missing from a localized image, it will not try to steal the catalog of another one.

* Use them in the time preflet to display and edit the date in a local-aware way

* Some support for languages having an order different than H:M:S:AM (like chinese). Does not seem to work too well, but I can't spot what I missed
* API to get the infos about the type of each field in a time format
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@37517 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* Remove 4.2 sourcecode
* ICU is now an optional package (mandatory)
* Adjust the namespaces and libraries names where needed

* Localize date in deskbar properly, and use the new API to show the calendar. The "show european date" checkbox is now gone.

* Remove the old one from the locale librairy, with some cleanup
Known regressions :
* readonlybootprompt will no longer update the locale settings : the
method used messed with internal undocumented things
* external localized apps (webpositive for example) will not run
anymore.
git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@37336 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96
* Applications don't have to declare BCatalog fCatalog themselves, it's now done automatically
* Libs and add-ons can be localized just the same way (except static libraries)
For now this new system is yet disabled as I'm looking for some peer review before going on. To enable it you have to define B_TRANSLATE_USE_NEW_MACROS in each file doing catalog access. This will not stay, I'll update the
other apps to use it.
The linking in jamfiles must be not only with liblocale.so, but also liblocalestub.a. Not sure how to handle this for user-side applications. Libraries are also required to provide a MIME signature to use any catalog.
The locale preflet is updated to the new system (as a test). Othe rapps will follow if everyone is ok with this approach.

and looks more like the rest of the API.
* Also, it will now return an appropriate error code if the language couldn't
be allocated (anything else than B_OK is an improvement :-)).
* Several changes in BLanguage:
- GetName() now gets a BString reference, also
- it now returns the name in its own language, ie. for German this would
always be "deutsch", no matter the current language settings, and finally,
- it now empties the string it gets before adding the name.
- added GetTranslatedName() that behaves like the previous version.
- added const where it made sense (ie. almost everywhere).
- Code() now returns the code of the language only.
- ID() now returns the full ID of this language, ie. including country,
variant, and keywords if any.
- added Country(), and Variant().
- renamed IsCountry() to IsCountrySpecific().
- added IsVariant().
* Cleaned up Language.h, minor cleanup in LocaleRoster.cpp.
* Removed the whole move item logic from LanguageListView; while this was not
only spaghetti code, it doesn't make much sense in the first place.
* Instead of removing stuff from the left, and even worse, moving all countries
for a language even if only one had been dragged, we now only mark the items
that are already in the preferred list, and only those.
* Fixed various mixups of FullList*() vs. *() methods that could lead to things
like bug #5896.
* Pressing the delete key in the preferred list view will now remove the
language.
* Moved LocaleWindow specific message constants to LocaleWindow.cpp; Locale.h
is supposed to contain application wide constants.
* The drop logic is now in LocaleWindow.
* We now make sure that each base language can only be in the list once.
* Lots of cleanup, even though I mostly replaced spaghettie code with different
looking spaghettie code - still, I think things have slightly improved.

* Added secondary macros, B_TRANSLATE* to replace TR*
* For new localization patches, please use the newer B_TRANSLATE*
* B_TRANSLATE* and TR* are functional during the transition to the new macros
* Autmatic whitespace cleanup

* Introduce a system-wide localization catalog used for strings hidden deep in some libraries. Add special API to get it.
* string_for_size is the first to make use of this system wide catalog. This allows to have a fully localized DriveSetup.
* As a side effect, tracker also uses it. It now requires liblocale.so.

* Fix the TimeFormat API, there was a double free. Make it work as expected : you send it a number of seconds and it will format it properly in days, hours, minutes, seconds with proper plural.
* Cleanup other parts of the Format API from useless things. They may get reintroduced later if we feel the need to do so.
* AboutSystem now use TimeFormat to display the uptime in properly localized way.

-Added a very simple test that shows the API is corrupting memory and ends up crashing
-Fixed build of other locale tests

- Some changes in the locale roster to allow instanciating a language
- Locale preflet : use this new API instead of directly calling ICU
Side effect : all languages in Locale window are now displayed in the current locale. It makes more sense as otherwise the list would be unsortable. However it can get annoying if you mistakenly set a strange language as default.

* Moved the locale stuff to the data directory as well (some parts were in /etc).
* The DefaultCatalog will now also scan the user directory for catalogs.
* Minor cleanup.

-MarkForTranslation was not scanned by collectcatkeys, improved the regexp to take it into account
-Some gristing was missing in jamrules, added a bit, still seem to miss some.
-Replaced $(var:B).ext with $(var:S=.ext) as it is the proper way in order not to loose grist and mess things up
-Removed icu include and replaced direct class nesting with pointer to avoid binary compatibility breakage on ICU updates.
-Fixed TimeFormatSettingsView to properly include needed icu things. Should not be there, actually. Needs cleanup.

-Some style fixes (mostly whitespace)
-Switch to the short language list and make it build again. seems to have trouble with BStringByteSink and utf8, or is it just my build env having encoding problems ?
