[TYPO3-core] RFC: #15711: Render ModuleMenu with ExtJs, remove the frameset

[Steffen Kamper]

Hi,

this is a SVN patch request.

Type: Feature

BT Reference: http://bugs.typo3.org/view.php?id=15711

Branches: trunk

This is a refactor of BE module navigation. The menu is rendered with 
ExtJs producing the same markup as before (only removed an unnecessary div)
There is no inline javascript anymore with the module switcher, as all 
navigation info is loaded in an ExtJS Store.

On top of module menu is docheader first row which is result of ourt 
design team.

The frameset is removed completely, instead our navigation panel is used 
for navigation tree. Also navigation tree is only refreshed if the url 
changes.
I added loading masks to show loading, therefore i changed the loading 
mask background, as it was black before.

The javascript is backwards compatible, so all modules using old 
javascript still works.

Navigation panel is now collapsible and resizable, Menu panel is 
prepared to have the same, and there will be a solution in one of the 
next steps.
So i want to bring this in, as it looks the same as before, but speeds 
up the BE a lot.

Remark: visuals like loading mask or splitbar will be modified later by 
design team, anyway i would like to bring it in now to get expirience 
with the new navigation.

If you want to explore the data in Store, simply open Firebug console 
and type:
ModuleMenu.Store (Strg + return)
