Improvements to the problib(3) API:

==> Provide a much more complete set of setters and getters for different
value types in the prop_array_util(3) and prop_dictionary_util(3)
functions.

==> Overhaul the prop_data(3), prop_number(3), and prop_string(3) APIs
to be easier to use and less awkwardly named, Deprecate the old
awkward names, and produce link-time warnings when they are referenced.

==> Deprecate mutable prop_data(3) and prop_string(3) objects. The old
APIs that support them still exist, but will now produce link-time
warnings when used.

==> When the new prop_string(3) API is used, strings are internally
de-duplicated as a memory footprint optimization.

==> Provide a rich set of bounds-checked gettter functions in and a
corresponding set of convenience setters in the prop_number(3) API.

==> Add a new prop_bool_value(3) function that is equivalent to
prop_bool_true(3), but aligned with the new "value" routines in
prop_data(3), prop_string(3), and prop_number(3).

Bump libprop minor number, I forgot to do it when I have added
prop_array_add_* routines. In version 1.2 of prop_array_util.c.

Pointed by bad@.

Bump libprop's minor after addition of prop_dictionary_make_immutable.

keys and returns them in an array. This effectively allows a caller

- Add prop_dictionary_all_keys(). Takes a snapshot of a dictionary's
keys and returns them in an array. This effectively allows a caller
to mutate a dictionary while iterating over it (really, you iterate
over the array of keys instead of the dictionary itself).
- Add a slew of utility functions that make it more convenient (in some
circumstances, anyway) to get/set values in a dictionary.

Several changes to proplib:
- Arrays can now be externalized and internalized in the same way
dictionaries can.
- Add new "externalize to file" and "internalize from file" functions
to make reading a property list from a file and writing a property
list to a file more convenient.
- Many assertions in the object implementations are gone. Instead,
calling an accessor for one object type with a different object type
as an argument will return a suitable "invalid" value.
- prop_object_type() now returns a new PROP_TYPE_UNKNOWN value if called
with a NULL object.
- Externalized property lists now contain a reference to the Apple XML
plist DTD.
- Add a new prop_ingest(3) facility, which provides a convenient way to
translate a dictionary into an arbitrary binary representation.

to / from the kernel using ioctls.

- Add prop_array_equals(), prop_dictionary_equals(), and
prop_dictionary_keysym_equals(), and prop_object_equals() functions.
- Use realloc() where it makes sense. There will be more changes in this
area.
- Add a _prop_object_type structure that is used internally to keep
information about the object types. Decreases the footprint of the
objects slightly by replacing several pointers with just one.
