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.

//GLbitfield mask = GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT|GL_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT;
This line was problematic since it produced incorrect result when let's say COLOR flag is serialized
it should be null as in Camera serializer or in a proposed BitFlagsSerializer
This line of code caused that whenever only GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT bit was written and on value read GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT|GL_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT was restored instead of GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT only.
//GLbitfield mask = 0; //this resolves the issue same as in camera
Also same bit-wise comparison bug was also present in write method.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As you can see there are total 3 bit mask serializers in OSG and all 3 had bugs so I decided to add ADD_BITFLAGS_SERIALIZER and replace USER serializers in osg::Camera, osg::ClearNode and osgText::TextBase. I have made sure that bitflags serializer does not break backwards-compatibility since it uses same code as user serializer does in all 3 cases. (see tester.cpp on how compatibility test was performed)"

macro, which could set version within brackets and reset it after
that. All related serializers are also modified so that the
backward-compatibility bug reported by Farshid can be fixed.

From Robert Osfield, removed the use of osg::Referenced and creating the proxy object on the heap.
serialization libraries. My submission mainly includes:
1. Add two new macros USE_DOTOSGWRAPPER_LIBRARY and
USE_SERIALIZER_WRAPPER_LIBRARY. Applications using static OSG must
include corresponding static-link libraries and use these two macros
to predefine native format wrappers. Please see osgstaticviewer and
present3D in the attachment for details.
2. Add a LibraryWrapper.cpp file in each
osgWrappers/deprecated-dotosg/... and osgWrappers/serializers/...
subfolder, which calls all USE_...WRAPPERS macros inside. The
LibraryWrapper file is automatically generated by the
wrapper_includer.cpp (with some slight fixes), which is also attached
for your reference. The deprecated-dotosg/osgAnimation is not included
because it doesn't us REGISTER_DOTOSGWRAPPER to define its wrappers.
3. Modify the ReaderWriterOSG.cpp to prevent calling loadWrappers()
when static build.
4. An uncorrelated fix to Serializer and ObjectWrapper.cpp, which
ensures version variables of serialziers are initialized, and
serializers out-of-version are not written to model files.
