Updated headers

[mudhairless]

Ahoy hoy! I've ran the latest headers for IUP, CD, IM and Lua through SWIG and thought they should be included with fbc proper.

Hi,

the IUP update will surely be welcomed:
http://www.freebasic.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=21045

I quickly looked at the updated Lua headers, and they seem to have some issues, for example:

• According to Lua 5.2.2 sources, the lua_Alloc function pointer typedef should be a function returning any any ptr, not a sub:

typedef void * (*lua_Alloc) (void *ud, void *ptr, size_t osize, size_t nsize);
type lua_Alloc as sub cdecl(byval as any ptr, byval as any ptr, byval as size_t, byval as size_t)
type lua_Alloc as function cdecl(byval as any ptr, byval as any ptr, byval as size_t, byval as size_t) as any ptr

• Some of the declarations are mistranslated, for example:

    LUA_API size_t          (lua_rawlen) (lua_State *L, int idx);
        declare function size_t cdecl alias "size_t" (byval as lua_rawlen) as LUA_API
    should be more like:
        declare function lua_rawlen cdecl alias "lua_rawlen"(byval L as lua_State ptr, byval idx as integer) as size_t

I guessed as much as they were entirely swig translated and I just added a
couple inclibs. I'll give them a quick look over.

I will also get the def regenerated as the one included is very outdated.

I have looked over the Lua headers and made a few corrections.

[dkl]

I merged the header updates and updated the Lua headers to 5.2.2. Also, the (only) Lua example we have needed adjustment to work with Lua 5.2 where lua_open() was removed.

Besides that, the updated IUP headers needed some adjustment to fix case-insensitivity conflicts. I tested them on Win32 (only) with the tabs example from here:
http://www.freebasic.net/forum/viewtopic.php?p=163128#p163128

Do we really need the *.def files? The IUP MinGW lib download contains import libs already, so we don't need to bother making our own. As for Lua, I have built static lib and DLL+import lib versions of it for the next FB release, it's easy enough to get the build to produce an import lib when making the DLL, so I think we don't need this one either. About the others (CD/IM library bindings), I don't know yet, could you try and provide some information on them (such as homepage and purpose) on the http://www.freebasic.net/wiki/wikka.php?wakka=ExtLibTOC wiki page, please?

Also, we should have some changelog.txt entries for the updated and added headers. I can do that for Lua and IUP at least.

I saw you removed the def files, i'm all for it if they're easily available. I was attempting to add the CD and IM bindings information to the wiki but it gives me the 404. Basically CD is a canvas like cairo, makes drawing stuff pretty easy and cross platform http://www.tecgraf.puc-rio.br/cd/, IM is for image loading / manipulation http://www.tecgraf.puc-rio.br/im/.
