Tracker: 32x32 icon size option in list mode

16x16 is same old default
32x32 is new and fun

Adjust start offset to depend on icon size

Remove the kColumnStart variable and instead use StartOffset()
method which calculates the column start offset based on the icon
size. When you switch between icon sizes in list mode recalculate
the first column width to make room for the icon or more text.

Add some padding to list height in large icon mode.

Tracker: made title view height depend on font size.

* It now uses a font that's 3/4 the size of the plain font; ie. there
shouldn't be any change with the default font size.
* Also cleaned up some weird layout code on the way.


# e7803cf1 26-Jan-2015 Augustin Cavalier <waddlesplash@gmail.com>

Tracker: use the Layout API wherever possible.

Sorry this commit is so big, but I couldn't figure out how to do this
incrementally without breaking things.

I wasn't able to just merge Aldeck's branch, as it was a partial refactor
of Tracker and didn't just rewrite the UI creation code to use layouts,
and the changes for PM (e.g. addon loading, virtual directories) made it
very hard to merge (it doesn't even compile after an automerge) so rather
than spending time on that, I decided it'd be better to recreate his work.

Miscellaneous notes:
- This partially cleans up BPoseView & subclasses and BContainerWindow &
subclasses -- none of the subclasses and child views abuse the parent's
state, child views, or layout now.
- BFilePanel and BDeskWindow are not on layouts, because:
* BFilePanel docs in the Be Book instructed developers that wanted to
modify BFilePanel's layout to just use FindView() and then move the
views around. Obviously making it use layouts will break all BeOS
apps that do this, and there are a lot of them (Pe, WonderBrush are
just two examples.) I've added a note to the TODO list for R2 to create
a layout-compatible API for this.
* Some replicants (Workspaces, for example) rely on manipulating
BDeskWindow's drawing state. This is incompatible with layouts, as
at least in the case of Workspaces, it breaks a layouted version
of BDeskWindow entirely.
- I noticed a lot of #ifdef BEOS_VERSION ... gunk in the code. Tracker
probably didn't build on BeOS just before this commit, and now it
won't for sure, so I intend to go through and clean that out in the
near future.

This commit also fixes:
- enhancement #4996 (make Tracker's navigator use vector icons)
- bug #3039 (resizing OpenWithWindow flashes the blue border)
- bug #3889 (OpenWithWindow redraw errors)
- a regression that was a side effect of "dynamic_cast<BDeskWindow*>(this)"
always returning NULL when run in the constructor. I just added a "bool
isDeskWindow" to BContainerWindow's constructor that is only set to true
by BDeskWindow.
- a copy&paste error in VirtualDirectoryPoseView that was passing "uint32
resizeMode" as "uint32 viewMode".

Thanks to Alexandre for his original branch (it was a very useful
reference), Axel (for some miscellaneous advice & encouragement),
Adrien & Humdinger (for user interface review), and Diver (for user
interface review & testing).

Tracker: style fixes to TitleView


# db416834 02-Jan-2013 Matt Madia <mattmadia@gmail.com>

Automatic whitespace cleanup. No functional change.


# b05aa8b5 27-Jul-2012 John Scipione <jscipione@gmail.com>

Style changes in Tracker, no functional change.

Manual whitespace cleanup
Change instances of const char * to const char*
Convert /* */ C style comments to // C++ style comments


# 2f86ba45 15-Feb-2009 Stephan Aßmus <superstippi@gmx.de>

Implemented a new look for the Haiku interface controls. It was
overheard that they looked too ninety-ish.
TODO: The code behind this is work in progress. The basic idea
is to extract all drawing code into a new class BControlLook,
of which there is a global instance be_control_look, instantiated
in InterfaceDefs.cpp. At the moment, all the old drawing code is
still there, and the usage of be_control_look is inside if-bodies
checking the instance against NULL. In another words, by not
instanitating be_control_look, you can revert back to the old look.
BControlLook's job is to provide reusable methods for drawing
certain types of frames, backgrounds and labels, so that application
developers can make controls that re-use the same drawing code
as built-in controls and adopt to changes made there. I have added
the notion of "borders". Each of the frame drawing methods can be
made to draw certain borders only, which is supposed to help when
controls shall visually attach. This feature is not fully explored
at all ATM.
TODO: Update BColumnListView header view and BStringItem text
spacing. Update other apps where it makes sense to use BControlLook.
For the moment, only Tracker and LaunchBox are updated. More...
NOTE: The new look is not very radically different, so that existing
apps do not immediately look too ugly or out of place.

# 27eab79b 20-Aug-2007 Axel Dörfler <axeld@pinc-software.de>

* BTitleView now resizes its columns asynchronously. As a side-effect, this
also solves the slow resizing part of bug #160 under Haiku (where GetMouse()
obviously gets a lot more messages).
* Rearranged the interaction between BTitleView and ColumnTrackState a bit,
removed some unused cruft.
* PoseView::ResizeColumn() had obviously required code to redraw the resizing
lines on enlarging the column excluded for whatever reason.
* Minor cleanup.
