particleSystem.showBoxes function missing from Kuda 1.3.2

[GoogleCodeExporter]

particleSystem.showBoxes();
particleSystem.hideBoxes();

missing from Kuda 1.3.2 build.  I tried using an alternative:

hemi.curve.showBoxes(particleSystem.boxes);
hemi.curve.hideBoxes(particleSystem.boxes);

but this doesn' work the same way... at least in the case that I tested see 
attached screenshot.  The bases show up in a different location from the 
particle system.

Ok, I wrote a unit test that shows the problem. 

http://labs.rajdye.com/superb/kuda/unit_tests/unit4.html

So I think the solution would be to restore the showBoxes() and hideBoxes() 
functions and implement them in the way that they were for Kuda 1.3.2

Added an optional second parameter to hemi.curve.showBoxes() to pass the parent 
transform of the particle system (if it's not the default client root 
transform). Updated unit test 4 for this change.

Also changed the constructor for hemi.curve.ParticleSystem so that the optional 
parent transform is now a part of the configuration object rather than a 
separate parameter. See hemi.curve.createSystem() for documentation on the 
config parameters. Updated unit tests and samples for this change.

I'm intentionally leaving showBoxes as a utility function of hemi.curve, since 
it's more of a debug utility than explicit functionality of a particle system.
