Tool to update old projects

[Gama11]

All these refactors (util package and FlxG refactor which isn't done yet) involve a lot of moving and renaming functions and variables. It's nothing that's really difficult to update to, but it can be very tedious and actually take a long time on bigger projects. It should be fairly straightforward to create a tool that updates all these outdated references in a flixel 1.x-codebase, it would have to take care of two things:

• Replace outdated function and variable names
• Remove old imports and make sure all the classes used in a class are imported

I'm not sure how to accomplish this yet though. I'll have to do some reasearch. Maybe someone can point me in a direction.

I would base it off something like this, all the pieces are there for recursive scan and you should only need simple find and replace one string with another;

I'd like to add, @impaler suggested that even a conversion script for as3-flixel might be doable. That'd be awesome! :)

I'd like to note that a backup of all files should be created by any of these tools before they touch any file, just to be on the safe side.
