Makefile.am: Build and export the Framework in package-macosx. This is probably not an appropriate place and will change one day.

Qt4 - Preferences, improve a bit the Hotkeys. Preparatory work to merge the Hotkeys from SPrefs and AdvPrefs.

qt4 - SPrefs: define a caching general value ( Custom, lowest, low, normal, high, highest) that control all the caching values in the preferences for dummies.
Preferences for dummies should now be finished. ref #603

A side effect is that on FreeBSD the console is not filled anymore with "xscreensaver-xxx not found", because "/bin/sh xx 2>&-" will not close stderr if the specified command doesn't exist.

Fix a few FIXMEs.

Don't pop the string before using it (else our pointer points to garbage) and add a user friendly error message in vlclua_stream_new.

Two things led me to add this new type of Lua modules:
 * Most interfaces duplicate code from one another (rc and telnet both deal
   with sockets, rc and hotkeys duplicate VLC interfacing code)
 * It's easier to code in Lua than in C (for high level stuff)
(* Users can code their own module easily, all they need is a text editor.)

Most of the changes in modules/misc/ are Lua wrappers for different C APIs
in VLC. I'd say that 90% of those wrappers won't change, the other 10% might
 need small changes (mostly to simplify the C code).

The VLC Lua "interface" module will look for lua scripts in the
*share*/luaintf/ directory. Files in *share*/luaintf/modules/ are lua modules
which can be used by multiple VLC Lua modules (using require "modulename").

This commit includes 4 Lua interface modules:
 * dummy.lua: the default module. Prints error messages and quits.
 * rc.lua: equivalent to the legacy rc.c module. Also includes a bunch of
   new features (+ multiple socket connections at a time work!). See file for
   more details.
 * telnet.lua: equivalent to the legacy telnet.c module. See file for more
   details.
 * hotkeys.lua: a rewrite of the hotkey handling module. This module is still
   experimental. I'll need to change VLC core hotkeys stuff to make it work
   like I want (ie: 1 hotkey triggers 1 action instead of the current 1 action
   can have 1 hotkey). This version executes 3 dummy actions when keys 'q',
   'w' or 'x' are pressed.

What's left to do:
 * Port the http interface plugin to this framework (at least for the
   macros/rpn part ... using <?vlc some lua code ?> à la PHP would be way
   easier than what we currently have).
 * Finish work on the hotkeys module.
 * Code a real telnet/rc module with autocompletion and all the cool features
   usually found in a telnet/terminal interface.
 * Trash the legacy C modules.

Stuff to test (which I can't test myself):
 * Win32 and Mac OS X specific changes to Makefile.am
 * Console interface under Win32. I expect it not to work.

Other stuff included in this changeset are:
 * Code cleanup (I'm sure that it's still possible to simplify some of the old lua bindings code).
 * That's pretty much it in fact :/

Remove unneed setting of val.b_bool before calling var_Set( p_input, "rate-{faster,slower}", val ) in the rc module. Those variables are of type VLC_VAR_VOID.

Add a psz_intf member to intf_thread_t. This holds the string given to module_Need to load the interface (which can then be used by the interface to know what name was used to load it).

* we don't need AUTHORS, THANKS, COPYING and README (generic edition) inside our app bundle anymore, as they're either hard-coded or present on the disk-image anyway

* use the hard-coded authors and thanks lists instead of bundled files and incorporate [22938] for trunk

authors: feel free to change to the licence you want, and to add yourself to the Authors list
additionnally, adds break.lua to its Makefile.am
