OTP-8058 The GUI parts are rewritten to use wxWidgets. Thanks Olle

          Mattsson!

          For the time being it is still possible to use the old GS based
          version of the tool, but it is deprecated. The wxWidgets based
          version is started by default.

          A new tutorial has been added to the documentation. It is based
          on Jayson Vantuyl's article
          http://souja.net/2009/04/making-sense-of-erlangs-event-tracer.htm
          l.

          The functions et:trace_me/4 and et:trace_me/5 has been introduced
          in order to replace the deprecated functions et:report_event/4
          and et:report_event/5. Hopefully the new names makes it a little
          more obvious what the intended usage of the functions are.

          A print function has been added to the GUI, in order to enable
          printing of sequence charts.

          More functionality for hiding unwanted events has been added to
          the GUI.

          The max_events, hide_unknown and display_mode configuration
          parameters to et_viewer is not used any more. Now the event cache
          in the Viewer only contains those events that actually are
          displayed in the GUI.
