This is a followup commit to 691fdea3 and restores the behavior of the
script as it was intended before 64e0c558, other than taking into account
possible inclusion of files that only pdflatex can process and the
possibility of multiple defined math macros.
The instant previews in the math manual now work again.
When the dvipng route is selected and latex fails, the lyxpreview2bitmap.py
script simply bails out. The failure may be due to using a specific pdf
only feature in ERT (for example, the inclusion of a pdf image).
In this case the procedure may succeed simply trying to use pdflatex
and the legacy conversion method.
Fedora ships these chmod 644 and has never seen a problem. The advantage
to doing this is that it better controls what version of python we are
using to launch the script, and it will reveal if we're somehow somewhere
not controlling that properly.
Let's have this in trunk for testing. The real difference maker
when it comes to color is whether we use dvipng or ghostscript.
For dvipng:
- The color info is passed as command-line arguments.
- The tightpage option is not necessary, and since it adds
ps specials to the output, we shouldn't use it.
For ghostscript:
- The color info needs to be in the latex file.
- The foreground color is set for each preview inset.
- The background color is set by \pagecolor in the preamble,
which is understood by pdflatex, but ignored in dvips mode.
Thus dvips is handled with a ps special.
- The tightpage option is necessary to crop the images.

- Break up steps 1, 2 and 3 from the legacy preview mechanism.
These are really separate steps.
1) Add color info, run latex
2) Run dvips
3) Run ghostscript
- In the case of pdf output, skip step 2 and go directly to step 3.
- Make sure that we fall back to the legacy conversion whenever we can.

Introduce --debug and --verbose flags to control output. Also, use the
python subprocess module to capture stderr from external commands, thus
bumping the python requirement to version 2.4 or later.

- Handle the preprocessing in the main lyxpreview script with the
command-line arguments --lilypond and --lilypond-book=exe.
- Remove the obsoleted file lyxpreview-lytex2bitmap.py and the
corresponding lines in configure.py.
Fix for the japanese preview still to come.

Add command-line arguments in a standard unix fashion, using getopt.
Usage: ./lyxpreview2bitmap.py <options> <input file>
Options:
-h, --help: Show this help screen and exit
--dpi=<res>: Resolution per inch (default: 128)
--png, --ppm: Select the output format (default: png)
--fg=<color>: Foreground color (default: black, ie '000000')
--bg=<color>: Background color (default: white, ie 'ffffff')
--latex=<exe>: Specify the executable for latex (default: latex)
The colors are hexadecimal strings, eg 'faf0e6'.
The changes to PreviewLoader.cpp break the preview of lilypond-book
and japanese files, but they will be handled in the next commits.

Move some common variables to lyxpreview_tools. Otherwise,
add a few variable names, making it easier to track things.

- recognize foreground color in pdf route. This is not nice, but there's no better way, AFAICS.

not correctly handled by dvipng. When a ps special is detected in the dvi
file, the old good legacy method is used. Patch from Ale.

* src/PreviewLoader.cpp:
- add conditions for preview with pdf output
* lib/scripts/legacy_lyxpreview2ppm.py:
- if no dvi preview file is available, check for a PDF file
and process that, if found
- also produce png output, if requested.
* lib/scripts/lyxpreview2bitmap.py:
- if no dvi preview file is available, check for a PDF file
and process that, if found
* lib/scripts/lyxpreview_tools.py:
- move some common functions here

Implementation is as similar as possible to the well-tested code in the
1.3.x tree.
