The problem with the previous attempt was that, every time through
updateBuffer, we looked up the file location using kpsewhich, which
took too long on Windows. The new solution is to cache that info, and
to look it up only when we need it.
Previously, this info would have been re-read whenever we parsed the
bibfiles. So we re-read it now whenever the bibinfo cache is invalid,
which is less often, but should be good enough. We can add more such
re-reads if need be.

This uses the InsetArgument interface to provide access to a document
part hitherto inaccessible by LyX: the part between \begin and the first
\item in a list (where lengths and counters can be redefined, for
instance).

File format change, layout format change
This returns a localized version of a string (in the GUI language)
if available, removing trailing colons and accelerator marks.
This can be used to refer to dialog items in the docs in a portable way.
QKeySequence returns special characters for keys on the mac rather than
textual key names (as on other OSes).
Since these symbols are not included in many fonts, we re-translate them
to textual names
Fixes: #10641
When searching for and item in the menu, also try to consider those that
require a BufferView (such as View/Update formats).
Also, be explicit for the default format in order to find it.
Fixes: #9851
This is a low hanging fruit, since it's already available (although
quite hidden)
Generally, output "not set" i a pref is not set rather than an empty
string.
With this commit, info insets leave the dark backstage room of an opaque
and quite hidden dev-only feature and come frontstage.
In the UI, they present themselves as "Fields" since this is what people
know from word processors. Other user-related fields that could be
implemented next: time, user name (I plan to do that for 2.4).
Since this supersedes date-insert, I removed Insert > Date from
the menu and propose to ditch date-insert and the corresponding rc.
The lyx2lyx reversion routine has lots of room for improvement and
attractive tasks for pythons (file timestamp, switch of localization).
Please feel invited!
This is a file format change.
* use the context language of the info inset (rather than the buffer
language), and translate strings accordingly
* for menu and shortcuts, use the Gui language instead
* actually care that all translatable strings end in po
(this wasn't the case).

Width is now 3 for top/bottomrule, 2 for midrule and 1 for cmidrule.
These numbers are bogus of course, but the goal is to help the user
see what he is doing.
It is a general problem when doing graphics to know where a line
begins and where it ends pixel-wise. At the instigation of Scott, and
with the use of the kmag magnifier, this commit corrects 3 areas:
* foreign marks were larger than the row element they were supposed to
mark. This could lead to moving lines, depending on paint ordering.
* visible spaces were drawn outside of their box (select a single
space to see this).
* the `L' blinking caret would leave a cursor dropping because the
horizontal part was too wide.
Minted does not have a language option but it is possible to enter
this option in the LyX interface for compatibility with the listings
package, and also for letting to enter a language not present in the
gui. So, this option is only used for properly specifying a language
in a listing, unless it is entered in the document settings dialog.
This case was not foreseen and thus the option was being passed to
the package as is, causing havoc. With this commit the option is
still available but is used to set a default language for a new
listing in place of the default "tex" language used so far.
