Tux Paint 0.9.25

What's new in this version:

New Features:
Export drawings:
- GIF export option from the Open -> Slideshow dialog
- Utilizes "gifenc", public domain by Marcel Rodrigues
- Depends on "libimagequant", from the "pngquant2" project. (GPL v3 or later, for Free/Libre Open Source Software); (h/t TOYAMA Shin-ichi for adding support for versions < 2.8.0)
-  Single image (PNG) export from the Open dialog
- Both utilize XDG user dirs settings, if available, to determine where to store them, or "~/Pictures", otherwise.  In those cases, files are stored in a new "TuxPaint" subdirectory.
- The "--exportdir" option can be used to override the default location (but a "TuxPaint" subdir. will NOT be placed there)

Shape controls:
- Draw shapes from the center (as in previous versions of Tux Paint) or from a corner (similar to the default mode of most other graphics tools)
- The controls to modify the drawing behavior can be removed, for simplification of Tux Paint's interface (for younger users)

Other Improvements:
- New, smaller sizes available in "Eraser" tool. (h/t Jackson Bray for the suggestion)
- "Eraser" tool now draws smoothly connected strokes, like the "Brush" tool, when the mouse is moved quickly (relative to the eraser size; especially useful for the smallest erasers)
-  On-screen keyboard (visible when the feature is enabled, while using the "Text" and "Label" tools) now appears with larger (48x48 pixel, vs 24x24 pixel) buttons, when Tux Paint's window (or fullscreen) size is large enough to fit them with the chosen layout. (h/t Anat & Aviv, who suggested it to help with users of eye-tracking systems)
-  On-screen keyboard buttons use a slightly larger font (16pt vs 12pt, previously seen on the small keyboard; 32pt on the large keyboard)

Ports & Building:
- Corrections for Haiku not opening saved files

Windows build changes:
- Enabling PowerTools repositry to install additional SDL* packages
- Corrected README launcher for English, after install completes
- Updated translation files and ensure license text appears
- Support for Mingw64 for 64-bit builds
- Ability to find Mingw DLLs by examining EXEs (new shell script replaces hard-coded list in Makefile). TOYAMA Shin-ichi <[email protected]>

- Mended bug where corrupt text would appear as stamp descriptions, if we failed to know what language to use (see above)
