Hi List!

Made a lot of GUI changes today!
a.) saving GTK1 and GTK2 fontnames in different preference setting, to prevent problems when switching between GTK1 and GTK2 ethereal versions
b.) added new feature "Edit->Go To First Packet" and "Edit->Go To Last Packet" with corresponding menu and toolbar items
c.) added new feature "View->Zoom In" / "View->Zoom Out" / View->Normal Size" with corresponding menu and toolbar items This feature will act as a "size offset" to the current fontsize, so that the packet list/tree view/... will have a larger/smaller font size. 
The value is stored inside the recent file.
d.) Win32 only: Try to get the win32 system font and fontsize at program startup and show the menus/dialogs and such with the same font and fontsize like other win32 windows. 
This makes the program make a *lot* more feel like a normal win32 program.


I've tested this on win32 only, both with GTK1 and GTK2.
As there are lot's of icons in the toolbar now, it's maybe become necessary to split into more than one main toolbar.
Please be kind, if I should have introduced any new bugs to the code, specially on the unix part as I cannot test it. 

Regards, ULFL
