Handle "&" in exactly the same way as "&" in wxMarkupParser, i.e. do not map the former to "&&" to prevent it from being interpreted as a mnemonic as this is incompatible with using markup for anything but the control labels, e.g. for wxDataViewCtrl items text, in which mnemonics are not recognized. And even when using markup for control labels, it was a questionable decision as it's really not clear at all why should the XML entity and the raw character itself be handled differently. Also split wxMarkupText into two classes, wxMarkupText that handles mnemonics in the markup (which is typically a label) and a very similar, but not derived, wxItemMarkupText that handles mnemonics-less markup for list etc. items, uses DrawItemText() and supports ellipsizing. Illustrate the use of ampersands in the dataview sample.
