e96b28181c Convert contributors documentation to markdown.
The conversion is very superficial and there are probably many problems in the
Markdown rendering, but this is the first step towards making these documents
more readable when viewing them online.

4ce8a5ed00 Rename tech notes to files with reasonable names.
Keep the old files to avoid breaking existing links to them, but just point to
the files in the new contributing subdirectory with more meaningful names now.

Also remove a couple of long obsolete tech notes.

86e4b188d7 Update the instructions about adding a new wxUSE_FOO symbol.
Mention wx/chkconf.h.

Provide specific instructions for MSW-specific options.

Don't tell people to update wx/univ/setup.h (it is auto-generated) nor
setup.h_vms (it is manually updated by the OpenVMS maintainer).

fa48fc5ada Don't advise people to make new libraries standard.
Update the instructions for adding the new library to not recommend to make
the new library standard, this is rarely, if ever, needed.

271d1e4589 Add first draft version of upmake, tool for updating makefiles.
Start moving away from files.bkl as the primary source for the files -- and
away from bakefile itself as the make/project file generator -- by storing the
list of files in a new build/files file and provide a simple build/upmake
script for updating files.bkl and the manually maintained MSVC10+ projects
from this file contents.

49b8d79c87 Remove (Open)Watcom support.
This compiler is not being developed since several years and almost certainly
can't be used to build the current wxWidgets sources anyhow, so remove all
support for it, including a lot of extremely ugly workarounds for its bugs
with template functions.

01f9accd19 Remove wxPM, wxWidgets port to OS/2.
This port is not used and is not being worked on, so remove it to reduce the
amount of the code which needs to be updated for every global change.

Also remove tests for VisualAge compiler which isn't used since ages.

f4b80e5337 Remove MSVC6 support.
Don't support this compiler any more, this allows to get rid of tons of
MSVC6-specific workarounds, in particular we can now use Bind() and natural
template functions calls in the library code.

Also remove MSVC6 project and solution files and don't generate them when
bakefile_gen is ran any more (removing the remaining occurrences of msvc6prj
from the bakefiles results in weird bake-time errors, so it's simpler to just
leave them there).

1828600933 Remove RPM .spec files from the repository.
They were not really used for anything but still had to be updated and
maintained.

Get rid of them as all RPM-based distributions use their own spec files
anyhow.

3f66f6a5b3 Remove all lines containing cvs/svn "$Id$" keyword.
This keyword is not expanded by Git which means it's not replaced with the
correct revision value in the releases made using git-based scripts and it's
confusing to have lines with unexpanded "$Id$" in the released files. As
expanding them with Git is not that simple (it could be done with git archive
and export-subst attribute) and there are not many benefits in having them in
the first place, just remove all these lines.

If nothing else, this will make an eventual transition to Git simpler.

Closes #14487.

fff5f7d5d8 Merge libpng 1.6.2 into the trunk.
Add pngprefix.h file generated by libpng configure/make process (which we
don't run during wxWidgets build, so this is something that will need to be
redone manually whenever libpng is upgraded, the procedure for doing this is
documented in docs/tech/tn0025.txt) in order to use "wx_" prefix for all
libpng public symbols. This should avoid at least some problems due to the
conflicts between the built-in libpng and shared libpng loaded into the
process as GTK+ libraries dependency under Unix.

Also rename wx_png_{warning,error} to use upper case PNG for consistency with
wx_PNG_stream_{reader,writer} and to avoid conflict with png_{warning,error}()
which we now rename to have "wx_" prefix.

Closes #14157.
