When using C++11 we can provide implementations of wxApp::StoreCurrentException()
and RethrowStoredException() ourselves and thus make catching exceptions outside
of the event loop work by default.
Do this and update the documentation and the sample to reflect it.
git-svn-id: https://svn.wxwidgets.org/svn/wx/wxWidgets/trunk@77470 c3d73ce0-8a6f-49c7-b76d-6d57e0e08775
These methods can be used to ensure that the exceptions thrown from event
handlers are safely rethrown from the code dispatching the events once the
control flow gets back there.
This allows to work around the problem with not being able to propagate
exceptions through non-C++ code and can be used, for example, to catch
exceptions thrown by the handlers invoked from inside wxYield() by a try/catch
block around wxYield() -- something that didn't work before, update the except
sample to show that it does work now.

Extract wxApp::OnExceptionInMainLoop() and OnUnhandledException() in a
separate Doxygen group as there will be more functions defined in it soon.

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.

Don't end the brief description at the first period if it's a period which is
part of "i.e." or "e.g.": escape the space following it to prevent Doxygen
from recognizing it as an end of sentence.
See #14866.

This undoes the changes of r44773 because calling setlocale() resulted in C
locale being set differently from C++ locale which was confusing and led to
huge slowdowns in any code using std::stream with at least MinGW. And setting
the C++ locale to be the same, as r72719 tried to do, doesn't seem to be
practical as it results in immediate crashes under OS X and MinGW when used
under XP.
Do provide wxApp::SetCLocale() helper to explicitly do what was previously
done implicitly, even though currently it is a trivial wrapper for setlocale()
and we don't even need to call gtk_set_locale() as it has never done anything
else and is deprecated since GTK+ 2.24.

The company behind MGL toolkit (SciTech) doesn't exist since several years and
this port is not used by anybody, so remove it to ease maintenance burden.

Allow defining event filters to globally pre-process all application events
without having to override wxApp::FilterEvent().

openFiles (available since OS X 10.3) replaces using the openFile method. It allows for more convenient handling of multiple drops and knowing in advance how much files/folders are dropped instead of openFile with which you only get to respond to a single file/folder drop at a time. By default openFiles calls the newly added MacOpenFiles which calls MacOpenFile multiple times, so ordinarily the behaviour is backwards compatible (both on wxOSX Cocoa and Carbon).
The openFile instance method has been removed because it doesn't seem to be called anymore: neither when dropping a single file on the application in the dock or Finder nor when passed as a command-line argument.

Applied patch by snowleopard2 fixing a bunch of typos such as misspellings and double words in the documentation. Combined the patch with some local queued typos waiting to be committed as well as adding new typo fixes inspired by the patch.
Function names with American spelling were not changed nor was third-party code touched. The only code changes involve some changes in strings that are translated ("Can not" -> "Cannot").
Closes#13063 (again).

Try to explain the different exception handling strategies more clearly in the

Use "wxWindows licence" and not "wxWidgets licence" (the latter doesn't
exist) and consistently spell "licence" using British spelling.

By default include assertions and debug logging in both debug and release
builds but disable them in application release builds (when NDEBUG is
defined).
Also update (more accurately, replace) debugging overview.

Don't capitalize the app name if it had been explicitly set with SetAppName()
as this can result in unexpectedly wrong value. Do capitalize the program name
which is used as app name by default and don't store the program name in
m_appName to be able to distinguish between the two cases.

Fix wxAppConsoleBase::Suspend/ResumeProcessingOfPendingEvents: locking the mutex does not prevent wxAppConsoleBase::ProcessPendingEvents from running if the mutex was locked from the main thread!

- implements YieldFor() with event filtering for wxMSW and wxGTK,
adds TODO markers in other ports;
- replaces wxYield() in GTK's clipboard code with a wxTheApp->YieldFor() call, thus fixing possible reentrancies
(and modifies clipboard sample to test synchronous IsSupported calls)
- replaces wxYieldIfNeeded() calls in wxProgressDialog with wxTheApp->YieldFor() calls, so that it processes only
UI/user-input events, thus fixing the race condition visible in the "thread" sample
- documents the new functions
