[TYPO3-dev] New TCA-options for getting labels with user-functions

Hi,

For the 4.5 release, I would like to propose the introduction of two new 
TCA options which offer the possibility to determine labels in a 
user-function.

$TCA['tx_whatever']['ctrl']['label_user_func']
This can be used whenever the label or label_alt options don't offer 
enough flexibility, e.g. when you want to look up another table to 
create your label. The result of this function will overwrite anything 
found by the regular label or label_alt functionality.

$TCA['tx_whatever']['columns']['my_field']['label_user_func']
This can be used if you wish to determine the label of the field 
yourself, e.g. depending on a type-field.

I have attached the patches need to make this run in the bugtracker 
(http://bugs.typo3.org/view.php?id=2979), including a small 
test-extension and an addition for the doc_core_api documentation, ready 
to copy/paste.

Any comments appreciated!

Greetings,
Dave.
