Neil Roberts ca34fab9cc [API CHANGE] tdf#172532 Add concrete interfaces for manipulating scripts
Adds optional concrete interfaces that can be added to implementations
of XBrowseNode to create, delete, edit or rename nodes. The comphelper
abstraction now uses these if the interface is implemented otherwise it
will fall back to the old method using XPropertySet and XInvocation so
that existing script providers will continue to work.

The goal is to avoid using XInvocation for duck-typed methods because
that breaks pyuno. It is also easier to implement the optional
interfaces than to use the previous approach.

LibreOffice API IDL Files Except UDK API

Contains all of the IDL files except those in udkapi.

i.e. the interfaces that are specific to the LibreOffice application. An artificial (?) separation.

The reference offapi/type_reference/offapi.idl and udkapi/type_reference/udkapi.idl (formerly combined into a single offapi/type_reference/types.rdb) are used to detect inadvertent incompatible changes. They are plain-text .idl files (not strictly lexicographically sorted, though, so they satisfy the .idl file requirements for no forward dependencies), so in cases where we deliberately /do/ become incompatible they can be modified manually.

Old such cases of deliberately becoming incompatible are listed in offapi/type_reference/typelibrary_history.txt, newer such cases are recorded in the git logs of (now superseded) offapi/type_reference/types.rdb, offapi/type_reference/offapi.rdb, and udkapi/type_reference/udkapi.rdb, new such cases are recorded in the git logs of offapi/type_reference/offapi.idl and udkapi/type_reference/udkapi.idl.
