When getting an instance of an OLE automation object, it is often useful to
connect to the existing instance if any or start a new one otherwise. Make
GetInstance() behave like this by default while still allowing to use the
wxAutomationInstance_UseExistingOnly flag to reestablish the old behaviour.
Also improve the error reporting in wxAutomationObject.
See #12489.

CLSID was used instead of ProgID in several places in the code and the
documentation but they are different things so clear up the confusion.
See #12489.

Add simple wxVersionInfo class holding the version information.
Also add GetLibraryVersionInfo() static method to wx{JPEG,PNG,TIFF}Handler,
wxStyledTextCtrl and wxXmlDocument classes and wxGetZlibVersionInfo() and
wxGetLibraryVersionInfo() global functions using it.
Closes#12690.

Add wxCMD_LINE_SWITCH_NEGATABLE which allows to use a dash after a command
line switch to inverse its meaning (i.e. use "/X-" form). Also add new
wxCmdLineParser::FoundSwitch() allowing to check for whether the switch was
specified in normal or negated form.
Closes#11643.

Setting sash size to non default value didn't work correctly and didn't make
much sense anyhow as the sash appearance is platform-dependent and current
code for drawing it doesn't work for arbitrary sizes.
Simply remove the possibility to set the sash size.
Closes#12412.

wxStatusBar is no less a control than wxToolBar and deriving it from wxControl
gives access to convenient native control creation functions under MSW (which
will be used by the next commit).

Try to explain the different exception handling strategies more clearly in the
overview and also update OnUnhandledException() documentation.

This method can be used for menu bar entries also since the previous commit.
Do mention that SetTitle() can't be used to change a menu bar menu title
however.

This method was defined in wxBitmapBase which is not used by wxMSW (and wxOS2)
so it wasn't available there. Move the definition of the method inline and
reuse it for all ports, making it part of either wxBitmapBase or wxBitmap as
appropriate.
This is clearly ugly but we still have no good solution for deriving wxBitmap
from wxBitmapBase in wxMSW as it already inherits from MSW-specific wxGDIImage
there.
Also document that ConvertToDisabled() is only available when wxUSE_IMAGE==1.

This function (and the related DoReportError()) doesn't need to modify its
"context" argument so take a const-pointer in it.
See #11431.

Emphasize the parts most useful for the new users instead of more advanced
concepts and generally make the text more readable.
Closes#12661.

This function checks if the pane can be docked at any side. It is useful in
its own right but most importantly is needed to fix compilation broken in
r66005 which used it before it was added.
See #12648.

Add an optional wxExecuteEnv parameter to wxExecute() which allows to specify
the initial working directory and custom environment for the child process.

The raw flags were previously unused in wxGTK but hardware key code is an
important information which may be useful to the application, so pass it in
the flags (this is rather symmetric with passing lParam in it under MSW as
lParam contains the scan code, among other things).
Also document the meaning of raw key code and flags in all the major ports.

No real changes but refactor wxSizerXmlHandler to make it easier to derive
from it by adding virtual IsSizerNode() and DoCreateSizer() methods. To add
support for a custom sizer class you only need to override them in
wxSizerXmlHandler subclass now.
Also document wxSizerXmlHandler which was not documented at all previously.
Closes#11845.

The return value of ShowModal() is the affirmative id and not wxID_OK, of
course.

Call OnXXX() from wxThread::Kill() and Delete() respectively to allow the
thread being terminated perform some cleanup.

As closing the output stream makes it unusable, it is destroyed as well and so
GetOutputStream() returns NULL after calling CloseOutput().
