forcing users to use osgDB::readRef*File() methods. The later is preferable as it closes a potential threading bug when using paging databases in conjunction
with the osgDB::Registry Object Cache. This threading bug occurs when one thread gets an object from the Cache via an osgDB::read*File() call where only
a pointer to the object is passed back, so taking a reference to the object is delayed till it gets reassigned to a ref_ptr<>, but at the same time another
thread calls a flush of the Object Cache deleting this object as it's referenceCount is now zero. Using osgDB::readREf*File() makes sure the a ref_ptr<> is
passed back and the referenceCount never goes to zero.
To ensure the OSG builds when OSG_PROVIDE_READFILE is to OFF the many cases of osgDB::read*File() usage had to be replaced with a ref_ptr<> osgDB::readRef*File()
usage. The avoid this change causing lots of other client code to be rewritten to handle the use of ref_ptr<> in place of C pointer I introduced a serious of
templte methods in various class to adapt ref_ptr<> to the underly C pointer to be passed to old OSG API's, example of this is found in include/osg/Group:
bool addChild(Node* child); // old method which can only be used with a Node*
tempalte<class T> bool addChild(const osg::ref_ptr<T>& child) { return addChild(child.get()); } // adapter template method
These changes together cover 149 modified files, so it's a large submission. This extent of changes are warrent to make use of the Object Cache
and multi-threaded loaded more robust.

* avfoundation: added support for IOS (CoreVideo-support is still in development, works only for SDK >= 6.0, set IPHONE_SDKVER in cMake accordingly)
* zeroconf: added ZeroConf-device-plugin (Mac/Win only, linux implementation missing) to advertise and discover services via ZeroConf/Bonjour, on windows you'll need the Bonjour SDK from Apple
* osgosc: modified the example to demonstrate the usage of the ZeroConf-plugin (start the example with the command-line-argument --zeroconf)
* SlideShowConstructor: enable/disable CoreVideo via a environment variable (P3D_ENABLE_CORE_VIDEO)
* RestHttp: mouse-motion-events get interpolated
* RestHttp: unhandled http-requests get sent as an user-event to the event-queue, all arguments get attached as user-values to the event
* modified some CMakeModules to work correctly when compiling for IOS
* fixed a compile-error for IOS in GraphicsWindowIOS
* some minor bugfixes"
I fixed some bugs and did some more tests with both of the video-plugins. I integrated CoreVideo with osgPresentation, ImageStream has a new virtual method called createSuitableTexture which returns NULL for default implementations. Specialized implementations like the QTKit-plugin return a CoreVideo-texture. I refactored the code in SlideShowConstructor::createTexturedQuad to use a texture returned from ImageStream::createSuitableTexture.
I did not use osgDB::readObjectFile to get the texture-object, as a lot of image-related code in SlideShowConstructor had to be refactored to use a texture. My changes are minimal and should not break existing code.
There's one minor issue with CoreVideo in general: As the implementation is asynchronous, there might be no texture available, when first showing the video the first frame. I am a bit unsure how to tackle this problem, any input on this is appreciated.
Back to the AVFoundation-plugin: the current implementation does not support CoreVideo as the QTKit-plugin supports it. There's no way to get decoded frames from AVFoundation stored on the GPU, which is kind of sad. I added some support for CoreVideo to transfer decoded frames back to the GPU, but in my testings the performance was worse than using the normal approach using glTexSubImage. This is why I disabled CoreVideo for AVFoundation. You can still request a CoreVideoTexture via readObjectFile, though.

Added support into .vnc plugin for passing in the keywords "swap", "RGB", "RGBA", "BGR", "BGRA" as OptionString values to allow .p3d presentations to control
whether the pixelformat should be swapped or set to a specific format.
