A better way to browse drawers

Workbench Explorer (WEx) is a modern file browser loaded with the features
you are used to, but also with several new functions/features no other file
browser has.

I hate writing manuals, but do read the included the AmigaGuide and Office
compatible doc file.

In Preferences->Installed tab there is a list of items that will add extra
functionality if they are installed.

Turn on Preview pane to:
     * View images
	 * Read text files
	 * View GIF anims
	 * Play MP3s

The purpose of Commodity Mode is to have WEx started at boot up
(WBStartup) and will be running in the background.  Then using the
hotkey (default: LAmiga + E) it will open.  Closing the window will ony
hide the interface.



###### [2.4 build 9430] - 2019-6-19				SAK_GetVersion() too slow.....
### Added
- In the paste exists window Version: text was added to clarify what the
numbers mean.

### Fixed
- The get version function doesn't like .o (C compiled object) very much so it
now skips these.  It caused a lot of crashes.

### Changed
- The get version function now only checks the first 512 bytes of non-ELF
binary files to speed things up.  Much faster.
