    Added Fltk (LGPL) license.

This widget is similar to Fl_Pack and supports either one row or one
column of widgets but has some more features. Test and demo programs
are included:

  test/flex_login.cxx: simple "login window" demo program
  test/flex_demo.cxx:  slightly more complex demo program

The original demo programs can still be compiled and built with
the new widget provided you '#include <FL/Fl_Flex.H>'.
Backwards compatible methods are included (except debug()).

The original widget has been modified to match FLTK standards and
enhanced in several ways, including:

- support box frames
- add HORIZONTAL and VERTICAL enum values (as in Fl_Pack)
- add horizontal() method (as in Fl_Pack)
- use type() rather than internal 'direction' variable
- add standard widget constructor (x, y, w, h, label)
- add margin and gap accessors rather than hard coding constants
- improve test and demo programs
- add documentation
- replace <vector> with array as required by FLTK CMP
- rename camelCase method names, keeping old names for compatibility:
  - change 'setSize(Fl_Widget*, int)'   to 'set_size(Fl_Widget*, int)'
  - change 'bool isSetSize(Fl_Widget*)' to 'int set_size(Fl_Widget*)'
- remove debug() method
- add a way to "unset" fixed size: set_size(Fl_Widget *, 0)
- add layout() method to force recalculation of children
- unify resizeRow() and resizeCol() methods to avoid code duplication
- improve widget size calculation.
