GSOC 2013 final update

[Ivan Vučica]

Hi all,

Opal backend works! Images, text, drawing, compositeGState... it seems to work. Applications actually seem recognizable! Hurray!

Well, for the most part. For screenshots and laments, see:

I'll try fixing what I can of the remaining issues. If someone can figure out an obvious reason why an issue would be occurring, drop me a note (or -- fix it) :-)

Feel free to test this. Aside from usual things you need to build gnustep-gui and the Cairo gnustep-back, you'll need to make && make install:

- dev-libs/corebase

- dev-libs/opal

Then, ./configure the gnustep-back with --enable-graphics=opal, make, make install.

Thanks to everyone who stuck around :-)

PS This works only under X11; Win32 support was not worked on (but, compared to everything else, will probably be easy to add).
