first (and uncomplete) light table implementation...

This patch is an uncomplete approach of Light Table embedded in album gui and
using a sidebar tab on the left.

Do not claim than this implentation do not work in any case: it's uncomplete
and not fully tested.

I post this patch to have a first feedback, epecially to see if the way to have
the Light table embedded in Album Gui is the right way. 

I'm not fully satisfied by it (:=))). I think than light table must be a
separate tool like Image Editor... But i'm not sure...

Of course the tool do not provide yet the way to compare image. The light table
sidebar tab is just a container to group the image to compare. When you select
an idem, it appear on the center using preview mode. You can just pan/scroll...


To add a picture to light table container, just use the pop-up menu with album
view and select the "Insert item to Light Table"

Limitation : the items cannot be yet removed from Light Table. digiKam do not
remember yet the items list in Light Table between session... and certainly
others stuff of course.

Please, try to be contructive. This is not yet time to request specific missing
features for Light Table. The implementation is in alpha stage...

Thansk in advance
