- Finished moving to the new proplist handling code in WINGs.

- Also tested the backward compatibility ability of the WINGs proplist code
  which seems to work quite well.

Starting with this moment, Window Maker no longer needs libPropList and is
now using the better and much more robust proplist code from WINGs. Also the
WINGs based proplist code is actively maintained while the old libPropList
code is practically dead and flawed by the fact that it borrowed concepts
from the UserDefaults which conflicted with the retain/release mechanism,
making some problems that libPropList had, practically unsolvable without a
complete redesign (which can be found in the more robust WINGs code).

Property lists handling code
----------------------------
Code to handle property lists was added to WINGs. It is more robust
than the libPropList code, mostly because some conflicting concepts
borrowed from UserDefaults (which libPropList uses) are no longer used in
the property lists code.
It is also better integrated with the other data types from WINGs.
Old libPropList based code can still run with the new WINGs proplist
code with minimal changes which are described in detail in the comments
at the top of the WINGs/proplist-compat.h header file (the same file
carries the #defines for mapping old libPropList functions to the new
WINGs proplist functions).
