[PATCH] Declension of month names in dates

[Jacek Stolarczyk]

Hi,

Why is it needed:
Current framework does not allow to write a proper date in long format in many 
languages.

What the patch does:
1) adds the ability to specify whether you want possessive forms of month 
names in dates ("of January" instead of "January"). In many languages (like 
Polish and Czech) it cannot be done even by concatenating "of" and month name
2) KLocale part is controlled by two keys (l10n/XX/entry.desktop):
	NounDeclension - general, grammar related, specifies whether nouns decline, 
default is false
	DateMonthNamePossessive - whether possessive forms are used
3) adds needed functions to KLocale, extends formatDate and readDate (reading 
is less strict, both possessive and not-possessive forms are recognized)
4) adds a checkbox in Date&Time control module. This chcekbox is visible only 
for languages which have "NounDeclension" set to true in 
l10n/XX/entry.desktop
5) removes "for" loops used unnecessarily in readDate, replaced by "while"

Usage of showEvent is possible a little weird, but moving that part to 
constructor didn't work.

Please, test it. The patch assumes that possessive forms of month names can be 
used only for languages in which nouns decline. That may be wrong, so please, 
notify me, I'll try to modify it accordingly.

I'll wait at least until Monday, before committing it to CVS.

Regards,

Jacek Stolarczyk
