Better layout for shortcode attributes

dev4press commented 9 years ago

Right now all attributes are displayed on a same panel, and if shortcode has many attributes it can hard to find and understand attributes. It would be great if the attributes get displayed using tabbed interface.

Add 'description' property to UI registration to better explain the purpose for the shortcode.
Add 'inline' property to UI registration to specify if the shortcode is inline or block element. Based on that shortcode in TinyMCE can be rendered as inline or block.
Add 'description' property to each attribute to be displayed bellow the field label to better explain the purpose of the attribute.
Add 'tab' property to specify the name of the tab. Shortcake will create tabs based on the tabs specified in attributes. Attributes without tab specified will be added to first default tab.
Add 'default' property to specify the default value for the attribute. If the entered value matches the default value, it will be removed from shortcode generated by the plugin.
DIV wp-view is used to display shortcode in the TinyMCE. Add class unique to each shortcode displayed (name of the shortcode with some prefix) beside wp-view to make sure each view can be styled based on the shortcode.

I think the first bullet point is duplicate of https://github.com/fusioneng/Shortcake/issues/408

This covers several issues - some are duplicates - but a lot of great suggestions. I'm going to close this issue in favour of individual tickets for each where they're not already covered.
