Extend Pop-Up to handle multiple categories at once

[GoogleCodeExporter]

This is needed for two features: 1) Viewing two categories at the same time, 
and 2) Buildings improvements.

To make this work, the parser for parsing data on a single category need to 
change, or there would be another map constructed for mapping a cateogry to its 
set of datas.

For how the dialog should look, perhaps adding another layer to the current 
list of floors would work.
The current list can be expanded at most once (Floor -> special information)
The new one would be (Floor -> category -> special information)
I didn't draw the icons out, but icons would still be placed at the floor level 
of the list.

Any suggestions?

This is how i envisioned it :)  One additional idea:

I think if there is only one category on a certain floor (this will be quite 
frequent with restrooms, we should hide the Restrooms / Coffee expander 
altogether, and just display it like we currently are.  This way, our current 
implementation can be a "special case" of the new popup, and we don't need to 
be redundant.

Update:

The newest version in the repo, buildings should display all categories (if not 
most) within that building.

To do: put the icons back :/

Done! Well, at least multiple category view are now complete for the buildings 
view. Icons for the categories located on a floor will show!
