 *   TADS 3 Library: banner manager
 *   
 *   This module defines the banner manager, which provides high-level
 *   services to create and manipulate banner windows.
 *   
 *   A "banner" is an independent window shown within the interpreter's
 *   main application display frame (which might be the entire screen on a
 *   character-mode terminal, or could be a window in a GUI system).  The
 *   game can control the creation and destruction of banner windows, and
 *   can control their placement and size.
 *   
 *   This implementation is based in part on Steve Breslin's banner
 *   manager, used by permission.

/*
 *   A BannerWindow corresponds to an on-screen banner.  For each banner
 *   window a game wants to display, the game must create an object of this
 *   class.
 *   
 *   Note that merely creating a BannerWindow object doesn't actually
 *   display a banner window.  Once a BannerWindow is created, the game
 *   must call the object's showBanner() method to create the on-screen
 *   window for the banner.
 *   
 *   BannerWindow instances are intended to be persistent (not transient).
 *   The banner manager keeps track of each banner window that's actually
 *   being displayed separately via an internal transient object; the game
 *   doesn't need to worry about these tracking objects, since the banner
 *   manager automatically handles them.  
 */

    /*
     *   Construct the object.
     *   
     *   'id' is a globally unique identifying string for the banner.  When
     *   we dynamically create a banner object, we have to provide a unique
     *   identifying string, so that we can correlate transient on-screen
     *   banners with the banners in a saved state when restoring the saved
     *   state.
     *   
     *   Note that no ID string is needed for BannerWindow objects defined
     *   statically at compile-time, because the object itself ('self') is
     *   a suitably unique and stable identifier.

     *   Show the banner.  The game should call this method when it first
     *   wants to display the banner.
     *   
     *   'parent' is the parent banner; this is an existing BannerWindow
     *   object.  If 'parent' is nil, then the parent is the main game
     *   text window.  The new window's display space is obtained by
     *   carving space out of the parent's area, according to the
     *   alignment and size values specified.
     *   
     *   'where' and 'other' give the position of the banner among the
     *   children of the given parent.  'where' is one of the constants
     *   BannerFirst, BannerLast, BannerBefore, or BannerAfter.  If
     *   'where' is BannerBefore or BannerAfter, 'other' gives the
     *   BannerWindow object to be used as the reference point in the
     *   parent's child list; 'other' is ignored in other cases.  Note
     *   that 'other' must always be another child of the same parent; if
     *   it's not, then we act as though 'where' were given as BannerLast.
     *   
     *   'windowType' is a BannerTypeXxx constant giving the new window's
     *   type.
     *   
     *   'align' is a BannerAlignXxx constant giving the alignment of the
     *   new window.  'size' is an integer giving the size of the banner,
     *   in units specified by 'sizeUnits', which is a BannerSizeXxx
     *   constant.  If 'size' is nil, it indicates that the caller doesn't
     *   care about the size, usually because the caller will be resizing
     *   the banner soon anyway; the banner will initially have zero size
     *   in this case if we create a new window, or will retain the
     *   existing size if there's already a system window.
     *   
     *   'styleFlags' is a combination of BannerStyleXxx constants
     *   (combined with the bitwise OR operator, '|'), giving the requested
     *   display style of the new banner window.
     *   
     *   Note that if we already have a system banner window, and the
     *   existing banner window has the same characteristics as the new
     *   creation parameters, we'll simply re-use the existing window
     *   rather than closing and re-creating it; this reduces unnecessary
     *   redrawing in cases where the window isn't changing.  If the caller
     *   explicitly wants to create a new window even if we already have a
     *   window, the caller should simply call removeBanner() before
     *   calling this routine.
