This removes the all hard dependencies to and from welcome screen,
except the one to the core plugin. More in detail:
- Add IWelcomePage to add a tab to the welcome screen
- Move tabs in the modules where they belong
- Enables QHelpManager to open help fullscreen and contextually
- "Getting Started" moves to Qt4ProjectManager
- Projects & Sessions (aka "Develop") moves to ProjectExplorer
- "Community" remains in the welcome plugin for simplicity
- show side-by-side if possible
- always show side-by-side
- always show full help
The default is "show side-by-side if possible". It's currently considered
possible if the editor is at least 800 pixels wide.
The qt_help cataloge is required to fully translate the help plugin. The
additional lookup is mandated by the binary packages, where the translations
are simply put in Creatrors translation directories and the Qt translation
path is invalid.

- clear up some Q_OS_LINUX vs. Q_OS_UNIX
- clear up Q_WS_* vs. Q_OS_* (relatively theoretical exercise)
- use proper #if-#else cascades instead of free-standing #ifs
When an example is selected, help and the project are opened
in a split view. We try to read the xml file provided for
QtDemo to extract details about the examples provided. Will
try all available Qts, starting with the default version. Will
fail gracefully (provide a message and disable controls) if
examples or demos cannot be found. Will work if help is not
found, but show an error.
Manage Sessions replaces "Restore last session" (which can be done by clicking
the "(last session)" session anyway. Also, added a "Create New Project" button.
Ensured that the welcome screen is only as high as needed (will orient on the
amount of items in the contained treewidgets). Scrolling is still last resort.
pros:
- the non-webkit version is not castrated any more
- i18n should become simpler
- but need to make the buttons non-labels for optimal results
- if we introduce delayed loading of the help plugin, we would get
webkit loading out of the startup's critical path alltogether
cons:
- the page might be a bit harder to modify for some
