a12656bd91 Add module UI export capability
Add the ability to be able to call and use toolkit-specific or
program-specific user interface in modules.

User interface code can be either bundled with the module, or 'split'
out in to separate libraries (recommended).

There are three reasons why splitting is recommended:

  1.) It allows plugins to be able to create custom user interface for
      each toolkit if desired.

  2.) Often, UI will be programmed in one language (the language of the
      toolkit), and core logic may be programmed in another.  This
      allows plugins to keep the languages separated if necessary.

  3.) It prevents direct linkage of UI toolkits libraries with core
      module logic.

Splitting is not required, though is recommended if you want your plugin
to be more flexible with other user interface toolkits or programs.

Will implement a generic properties lookup next, which will be used for
automatic UI handling so that plugin UI isn't necessarily required.

de288ac541 Rename obs_data structure to obs_program_data
I'm doing this because I might create another data structure called
obs_data for a different purpose.  That and obs_program_data feels a bit
less vague for what it does.
