Patch against SRF revision 114488

This bugzilla report holds information and patches about SRF jqPlot v1.8 which includes a major re-factoring effort in how SRF communicates with the jqPlot plug-in in order to make it compatible with SRF 1.8 and MW 1.19. This patch requires the ResourceLoader and requires MW 1.17+, SWM 1.7.2+.

Major changes

All inline javascript have been striped and moved into external resource files (../jqPlot/resources/..).

ext.srf.jqplot.bar.js is designed so it can be used for both and SRF_jqPlotSeries.php

ext.srf.jqplot.pie.js share instructions for the pie and donut renderer.

ext.srf.jqplot.bubble.js instructions to render bubble chart

An experimental new format (jqplotseries, SRF_jqPlotSeries.php) has been added to allow numercial data sets to be displayed as chart series. The module does work but need thorough testing and shouldn't not be used in production.

SEF jqPlotSeries supports bar, line, stacked bar, and bubble charts. Bubble chart data sets have to follow jqPlot's [x, y, radius, <label or object>] convention.

The plug-in has been updated to version 1.0.0b2_r947.
