Vadim Zeitlin a7cfad3ad6 Add go to first/last and plus/minus art provider icons.
These icons will be used in the upcoming new implementation of the print
preview frame and as they are also natively supported by GTK+ it makes sense
to have support for them in wx itself.

Notice that the existing bookmark add/remove icons are already mapped to the
icons which look like plus and minus signs respectively in wxGTK but we need
plus/minus in print preview in the other ports too so add these icons under
explicit names.

@class wxArtProvider
wxArtProvider class is used to customize the look of wxWidgets application.
When wxWidgets needs to display an icon or a bitmap (e.g. in the standard file
dialog), it does not use a hard-coded resource but asks wxArtProvider for it
instead. This way users can plug in their own wxArtProvider class and easily
replace standard art with their own version.
All that is needed is to derive a class from wxArtProvider, override either its
wxArtProvider::CreateBitmap() and/or its wxArtProvider::CreateIconBundle() methods
and register the provider with wxArtProvider::Push():
@code
class MyProvider : public wxArtProvider
{
protected:
wxBitmap CreateBitmap(const wxArtID& id,
const wxArtClient& client,
const wxSize size)
// optionally override this one as well
wxIconBundle CreateIconBundle(const wxArtID& id,
const wxArtClient& client)
{ ... }
};
...
wxArtProvider::Push(new MyProvider);
@endcode
If you need bitmap images (of the same artwork) that should be displayed at
different sizes you should probably consider overriding wxArtProvider::CreateIconBundle
and supplying icon bundles that contain different bitmap sizes.
There's another way of taking advantage of this class: you can use it in your
code and use platform native icons as provided by wxArtProvider::GetBitmap or
wxArtProvider::GetIcon.
@section artprovider_identify Identifying art resources
Every bitmap and icon bundle are known to wxArtProvider under an unique ID that
is used when requesting a resource from it. The ID is represented by the ::wxArtID type
and can have one of these predefined values (you can see bitmaps represented by these
constants in the @ref page_samples_artprov):
<table>
<tr><td>
@li wxART_ERROR
@li wxART_QUESTION
@li wxART_WARNING
@li wxART_INFORMATION
@li wxART_ADD_BOOKMARK
@li wxART_DEL_BOOKMARK
@li wxART_HELP_SIDE_PANEL
@li wxART_HELP_SETTINGS
@li wxART_HELP_BOOK
@li wxART_HELP_FOLDER
@li wxART_HELP_PAGE

</td><td>
@li wxART_GOTO_LAST (since 2.9.2)
@li wxART_PRINT
@li wxART_HELP
@li wxART_TIP

@li wxART_FIND
@li wxART_FIND_AND_REPLACE
@li wxART_HARDDISK
@li wxART_FLOPPY
@li wxART_CDROM
@li wxART_REMOVABLE
</td></tr>
</table>
Additionally, any string recognized by custom art providers registered using
wxArtProvider::Push may be used.
@note
When running under GTK+ 2, GTK+ stock item IDs (e.g. @c "gtk-cdrom") may be used
as well:
@code
#ifdef __WXGTK__
wxBitmap bmp = wxArtProvider::GetBitmap("gtk-cdrom", wxART_MENU);
#endif
@endcode
For a list of the GTK+ stock items please refer to the
<a href="http://library.gnome.org/devel/gtk/stable/gtk-Stock-Items.html">GTK+ documentation
page</a>.
It is also possible to load icons from the current icon theme by specifying their name
(without extension and directory components).
Icon themes recognized by GTK+ follow the freedesktop.org
<a href="http://freedesktop.org/Standards/icon-theme-spec">Icon Themes specification</a>.
Note that themes are not guaranteed to contain all icons, so wxArtProvider may
return ::wxNullBitmap or ::wxNullIcon.
The default theme is typically installed in @c /usr/share/icons/hicolor.
@section artprovider_clients Clients
The @e client is the entity that calls wxArtProvider's GetBitmap() or GetIcon() function.
It is represented by wxClientID type and can have one of these values:
@li wxART_TOOLBAR
@li wxART_MENU
@li wxART_BUTTON
@li wxART_FRAME_ICON
@li wxART_CMN_DIALOG
@li wxART_HELP_BROWSER
@li wxART_MESSAGE_BOX
@li wxART_OTHER (used for all requests that don't fit into any of the
categories above)
Client ID serve as a hint to wxArtProvider that is supposed to help it to
choose the best looking bitmap. For example it is often desirable to use
slightly different icons in menus and toolbars even though they represent
the same action (e.g. wxART_FILE_OPEN). Remember that this is really only a
hint for wxArtProvider -- it is common that wxArtProvider::GetBitmap returns
identical bitmap for different client values!
