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

Browse Source 
- 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).

/*
* This header file is provided for old libPropList compatibility.
* DO _NOT_ USE this except for letting your old libPropList-based code to
* work with the new property list code from WINGs, with minimal changes.
*
* All code written with old libPropList functions should work, given
* that the following changes are made:
*
* 1. Replace all
* #include <proplist.h>
* with
* #include <WINGs/proplist-compat.h>
* in your code.
*
* 2. Change all calls to PLSave() to have the extra filename parameter like:
* PLSave(proplist_t proplist, char* filename, Bool atomically)
*
* 3. The PLSetStringCmpHook() function is no longer available. There is a
* similar but simpler function provided which is enough for practical
* purposes:
* PLSetCaseSensitive(Bool caseSensitive)
*
* 4. The following functions do no longer exist. They were removed because
* they were based on concepts borrowed from UserDefaults which conflict
* with the retain/release mechanism:
* PLSynchronize(), PLDeepSynchronize(), PLShallowSynchronize()
* PLSetFilename(), PLGetFilename()
* PLGetContainer()
* You should change your code to not use them anymore.
*
* 5. The following functions are no longer available. They were removed
* because they also used borrowed concepts which have no place in a
* property list as defined in the OpenStep specifications. Also these
* functions were hardly ever used in programs to our knowledge.
* PLGetDomainNames(), PLGetDomain(), PLSetDomain(), PLDeleteDomain()
* PLRegister(), PLUnregister()
* You should also change your code to not use them anymore (in case you
* ever used them anyway ;-) ).
*
* 6. Link your program with libWINGs or libWUtil instead of libPropList.
* (libWINGs should be used for GUI apps, while libWUtil for non-GUI apps)
*
*
* Our recommandation is to rewrite your code to use the new functions and
* link against libWINGs/libWUtil. We do not recommend you to keep using old
* libPropList function names. This file is provided just to allow existing
* libropList based applications to run with minimal changes with the new
* proplist code from WINGs before their authors get the time to rewrite
* them. New proplist code from WINGs provide a better integration with the
* other data types from WINGs, not to mention that the proplist code in WINGs
* is actively maintained while the old libPropList is dead.
