In practice, almost everybody using validators also seems to use this style,
so make it the default (this hadn't been done when it was originally
introduced because of compatibility concerns, but now, 15+ years later, it's
probably safe enough to change this).
The size of the dialog in wxPreferencesEditor's generic implementation
is determined from notebook pages alone and doesn't account for label
size, which may be significantly longer in some languages (German,
Danish). If the labels don't fit into the window, some of the tabs are
hidden behind scroll buttons that are easy to overlook.
Improve usability by using wxNB_MULTILINE, which will use multiple rows
of tabs in this situation. This is what e.g. Internet Explorer does in
its preferences as well.

Don't prevent termination of the app if all windows are closed, except
for the preferences one (which may very well be hidden at the moment).
This only affects platforms where the preferences are modeless (GTK+, OS
X) and where the preferences window, once created, continues to exist,
but is hidden.

This keyword is not expanded by Git which means it's not replaced with the
correct revision value in the releases made using git-based scripts and it's
confusing to have lines with unexpanded "$Id$" in the released files. As
expanding them with Git is not that simple (it could be done with git archive
and export-subst attribute) and there are not many benefits in having them in
the first place, just remove all these lines.
If nothing else, this will make an eventual transition to Git simpler.
Closes#14487.

When a preferences dialog is shown non-modally, it should still fit to the
contents of its pages, so move the code added for the modal case in r73624
to the base wxGenericPreferencesEditorImplBase class.

The modal dialog case is not really different, the dialog may still need to be
dismissed if the associated object doesn't exist any longer.

This is more appropriate than just "Preferences" under MSW and GTK which use
the generic wxPreferencesEditor, OS X has its own native version which
continues to correctly use "Preferences" for the title.

Customize the title is useful for "Settings"-style windows which are used for
editing the properties of the given object, that should be identified in the
window title, as opposed to the global program preferences.

This is very convenient under systems using a modal dialog for the preferences
editor implementation (such as MSW), as it allows to do several changes in the
same page without having to select it manually every time.

No real changes, just rename a method to avoid confusion with
wxPreferencesPage::CreateWindow().
Also return the concrete type of the dialog, not a base wxDialog, as it will
be useful for future changes.

Ensure that the dialog has the appropriate size before showing it.
In addition to making it big enough to fit the pages contents, this also fixes
a problem with initial appearance under MSW.

Implements native UI for preferences editing. In particular, the API
handles the differences between modal (Windows) and non-modal (OS X) preferences windows and provides platform's native look.
Currently implemented natively for wxOSX/Cocoa, wxGTK and Windows (the latter is used as a fallback generic implementation as well).
