Improved screen grabbing; default screenshot format is now .png
Added routines for grabbing the contents of a Canvas in various ways. One can create an image_t, QImage or an OpenGL texture out of the contents.
Improved performance of busy mode screen grab by making it straight into a texture.
Screen captures are now saved as .png instead of uncompressed Targa. This should make life easier for people who take screenshots.
Todo: Test what happens on old graphics cards that don't support non-power-of-two textures. I'm not sure how QGLContext handles the QImage->texture creation in that case (either scale or sub-image). If the non-Po2 extension is not listed by OpenGL, we can always pre-scale the QImage to a Po2 size.
