Subject: [PATCH] Allow creating wxRegion from rectangle with negative size
 (GTK).

GdkRectangle used to represent a rectangle region should have (x,y) parameters pointing to the top-left corner of the box with non-negative width and height so if a rectangle with negative values of the width or height is passed to wxRegion::InitRect() (what means that (x,y) doesn't represent top-left corner) we need to recalculate passed parameters to get rectangle with (x,y) at the top-left corner.
