I'm now introducing a couple of goodies to make externals more useful,
they are:
* add: extra parameter with the part name. This may be used by
external objects to emit signals in the name of that part.
* param_set/param_get: set parameters at runtime, given their names
and types. This avoids requiring users to get the actual object and
call methods. This abstraction is also good because it let one uses
Elementary without even linking to it ;-) (this have limits, like
complex types are not supported). Right now this is just exposed
to C, but goal is to have it exposed in Embryo and Lua as well.
* translate: new method to translate previously strings that are
specified statically, such as the parameters names.
Four new functions got added to the Edje API:
* edje_object_part_external_object_get() so we don't have to abuse
edje_object_part_swallow_get()
* edje_object_part_external_param_set() and
edje_object_part_external_param_get() that call the external type's
functions.
* edje_external_param_type_str() to convert types to string and
provide nicer debugs :-)
TODO:
* expose external_param_set()/external_param_get() to Embryo and Lua.

Change group_del() to receive the name of the group to be deleted, and
change the function to not delete a group currently loaded. This causes
problems at the time of deleting the Evas_Object.
Also changed a bit the save() function and added save_all(), which saves
every group loaded, not only the one set to the object. This is mainly so
at the time of deleting a group, we can save the whole file and thus avoid
it getting out of sync with references if a group is deleted and the file
not saved afterwards.

You can try it by passing --enable-fixed-point to the configure. It
will produce an ABI/API compatible Edje library that use internally
Eina_F32p32 instead of double. It will load Eina_F32p32 instead of
double from eet file (thanks to eet ability to convert them on the
fly), so edje file are compatible between fixed point and floating
point version.
This patch touch almost all internal calc of Edje, I did test it with
elementary_test, enlightenment and all my test apps, but it could
certainly break some of your preferred Edje file. If you see any
unexpected behaviour please report them to me as soon as possible.
Note: For devs, I put few macros in edje_private.h that should now
be used when doing calc in Edje, please use them so that Fixed Point
doesn't break in the futur.
