Hopefully this is the final patch ...

+ Added ability to save and load iconified (minimized) dialogs.
+ Removed patch for bug #910344 so it can be applied independently.

- To save the full docking status (such as docked dialogs in floating window) will need more serious work (saving above/below/left/right dialog x, inside a floating window/dock, floating window size/location etc).
Perhaps we can target this in another patch.

This should cover most users requests - since until now advanced features such as docked dialogs in a floating window is a crasher.

In summary :
* Saves status of all dockable, non-dockable, floating and iconified dialogs.
* Multiple docked dialogs in floating window are remembered as floating.
* Layers icon issue fixed.
* Saves the dialogs status of the last window.

Tested on Ubuntu 11.10 and Windows 7.
Please try it out and let us know of any issues .... and happy 2012 !!
