John Scipione e724b26f23 Remove enum elaborated type specifier
...from orientation params. Elaborated type specifiers are not needed
for C++ code and removing them makes doxygen happy. Verified working
on both gcc2h and gcc4h builds.

\class BTwoDimensionalLayout
\ingroup interface

\ingroup libbe
\brief Abstract BLayout subclass arranging items within rows and columns.
This class manages all the tricky work of actually positioning/resizing
items, as well as calculating size constraints and providing extra features,
such as spacing/insets and alignment of multiple
BTwoDimensionalLayout's. Derived classes need only implement a few hook
methods to get a working layout.
\warning This class is not yet finalized, if you use it in your software
assume that it will break some time in the future.

\fn void BTwoDimensionalLayout::AlignLayoutWith(
BTwoDimensionalLayout* other, orientation orientation)
\brief Align the BLayoutItem's in the specified \a orientation within
two or more BTwoDimensionalLayout's.
When two (or more) BTwoDimensionalLayout's are aligned within a
certain \a orientation, then the BLayoutItem's within those
BTwoDimensionalLayout's will have identical widths or heights
(depending on how the BTwoDimensionalLayout's are aligned.)
If you align two BGroupLayout's horizontally for example, then the
BLayoutItem at index 0 in both BGroupLayout's will be given the same
horizontal area. The same is true for the BLayoutItem at index 1,
2, etc. Not all BTwoDimensionalLayout's have to have an item at each
index for the alignment to proceed.
\param other The BTwoDimensionalLayout to be aligned with.
\param orientation The \a orientation on which to be aligned.
