New Free Software Foundation Address in headers of various files

New Free Software Foundation Address in headers of various files

* Simple lowercasing of HTML tags (double-checked for correctness)
* Simple quoting of HTML tag arguments (double-checked for correctness)
* Fixed singe-within-single quotes issue in part of JavaScript code
  in lib/Vend/Options/Simple.pm

Big copyright and version number update to prepare for 5.3.2 release.

* Make the start of XHTML support for Interchange.

* Add global XHTML and catalog XHTML options. Global is false/off by
  default, and catalog option is defaulted from global option.

* The only effect is that Dispatch.pm sets $Vend::Xtrailer to the
  appropriate value of '/' or ''.

* Use $Vend::Xtrailer to set any <br/> or <br> we use.

* Change some generated HTML to:

	-- lowercase tags
	-- quote parms
	-- use $Vend::Xtrailer

* Supply [br] tag which returns the proper <br/> or <br>.

* Add blank_label="--select--" option to [item-options], allows development
  of code to enforce option selection.

* Safe enough to merge to stable, but I will let the powers that be decide
  on that. 8-)

Convert nonstandard != to standard SQL <> (which also avoids a parse
error in the new Vend::SQL_Parser).

continued work on POD to appear as regular manpages

* Major update to product options.

* Options are now modular in much the same way as Vend::Payment is.
  You can add an unlimited number of option types simply by dropping
  a module into Vend::Options.

* By default, the old 4.8 style options are in force, implemented
  with Vend::Options::Old48.

  If you add this to catalog.cfg (in etc/after.cfg in foundation):

  	OptionsEnable   option_type

  The "option_type" names a field in the products file which controls
  the option type. This enables new-style options.

  It can also be in a specific table and field, ala AutoModifier:

  	OptionsEnable   table:field

  Indeed, this is added to AutoModifer after catalog.cfg.

* There are two new-style options included:

	Vend::Options::Matrix
	Vend::Options::Simple

  These are equivalent to the current matrix and simple options.

* Options behavior is controlled in catalog.cfg by a locale-style
  multiple hash (ala UserDb or Route):

  	Options   Matrix   sort            o_sort,o_group
  	Options   Matrix   variant_table   my_variants

* To find and add a new option type, simply set something in
  catalog.cfg:

  	Options  MyOptions  table  my_options

  That will cause a require of Vend::Options::MyOptions.

* The matrix products have been moved to the "variants" table.

* The options table contains options for both Matrix and Simple types,
  but only fields for building those simple-type options (which are
  used to generate variants for Matrix). The followign fields
  have been removed from options:

	differential
	mv_shipmode
	o_enable
	o_exclude
	o_footer
	o_header
	o_include
	o_master
	o_matrix
	o_modular
	phantom
	volume
	weight

* The variants table is a subset of the fields in products.

* The admin page for each option style is defined in its
  admin_page routine, usually an include from inclued/Options/OptionType.

* size and color fields removed from products table, option_type added.
