Coding conventions

• headers in include/core_api shall not include headers from other YafaRay include dirs.
• headers in include/core_api shall not use HAVE_* options (like '#if HAVE_EXR')
• plugins using headers other than core_api ones need to have all libs added to their build environment for all HAVE_* options they pull in (directly or indirectly!)
• interface functions shall not have arguments or return types which depend on configurable typedefines (such as CFLOAT, PLOAT and GFLOAT)
• use doxygen comments to document non-obv
