[Editor] Projects system

[Wohlstand]

After completion of internal storage and history management reorganization, will be implemented projects system to improve work-flow with big episodes and many levels.

Project system will work like "Open Folder" in Microsoft Expression Web editor.

Planned features

• Quick opening of levels and world maps from a tree
• Drag&Drop plugging levels into level ports on world map or into the warp exits on the levels, or plugging a custom musics to level sections by simple drop
• Configurable file filters (by default show lvl, lvlx, wld, wldx, wls, txt, ini and lua) to show them in a tree

Any opinions, suggestions, notes, etc. can be described in the discodehaus chat or reply here

I would want to have tools for easier connection of sections into Metroidvania-styled level for easier navigation. A qick glance at level map is better than having to bookmark every of the 80+ sections to find a spot that needs fixing/reworking. Here is a screen shot from Prince of Persia level editor. Prince of Persia uses flip screen scrolling, while editor displays all screens in map style. Imagine if every screen is a section from PGE level.

And, because in most SMBX levels sections physically are placed VERY far from each other, this screen will be like schematic editor (I.e. you will have a list of available "used" sections (each of them can be used once) and you can add them to the map and move them as you like to make approximal view of level, then edit each of them by clicking. But also an idea of exporting full level map with using this, so, good idea, I like)
