Resource lookup functions for libxfce4util

Since whats currently provided by xdg.[ch] is unflexible and maybe not 
sufficient to fullfill the needs at all, I wrote a new implementation for 
resource lookups (base on the XDG Basedir Spec).

I'd like to get some feedback on this before I go on and commit it. So if 
anyone knows of anything that could be missing from, please speak now or 
remain silent forever :-)

Generated gtkdoc (experimental ;) can be found at
http://www.xfce.org/~benny/api/libxfce4util/libxfce4util-Resource-lookup-functions.html

BTW: Can we manage to switch to the Basedir locations for 4.2? E.g. no longer 
having ~/.xfce4/, but instead using the standard locations at ~/.config/ and 
~/.local/share/ (or whatever the user sets in $XDG_{DATA,CONFIG}_HOME). The 
transition can be done nearly 100% transparently to the user.
