Changes:
* Added Document::set_file_extension(). Extension enforced when saving.
* Closing window with [x] button now handled like File|Close.
* User is now asked to choose another filename after saying no to
  overwriting existing file.
* 'Save As' dialog now shows existing filename as default.
* Set window titles for Open and Save dialogs.
* File|Open now opens the doc in a new instance if the document is
  not just a default empty new document.
* Added Bakery::FileSelection, derived from Gtk::FileSelection, but
  has a run() method like Gnome::Dialog.
* Derived Apps must now override new_instance() instead of
  on_menu_File_New().
* Dialog_OfferSave now inherits from Gnome::MessageBox, now that
  it has been fixed in Gnome--. This simplifies the code.
* Updated dialog memory management for Gnome-- fixes. Now simpler.
* About box is now shared by all instances.
* Added hooks for Copy/Paste but the implementation will depend on
  the actual app.
