Implemented logarithmic slider ticks

[klytje]

I implemented a new element slider_marks_log and showcase it in the range_slider example.

I couldn't figure out how to do this correctly while limiting myself to the original <size, num_divs, major_divs> template, so I switched it around (for this element only) to <size, major_divs, minor_divs> instead. For consistency I think either the normal slider_marks element should also be updated with this, or alternatively remove the minor_divs template from this new element and hardcode it to 10. I don't see any reason to use a different number than this anyway.

Cool! I've been thinking about that this morning!

Now that I look at it, I think the example could use a little bit of polish with some titles and sections maybe

The <size, major_divs, minor_divs> API is better.

Here's a suggestion:

1. Rewrite slider_marks with the updated template params, along with slider_marks_element.
2. Rename it to slider_marks_lin and slider_marks_lin_element
3. Write a forwarding template function slider_marks and alias template (or subclass, if alias is not possible) slider_marks_element, both in terms of slider_marks_lin and slider_marks_lin_element.
4. Mark these as deprecated with a message referring to the new API.
5. Have the examples use the new API.
