Updated plugins

• apostrophe:
  • a.pageCheckPrivilege event filter still takes place if 'edit' => true is explicitly specified
  • options of globalSetup are passed to a.afterGlobalSetup event as $eventoptions
  • the new a.filterValidAndEditable event provides a way to influence the behavior of the validAndEditable method of the 'aActions' class
  • getMediaForArea() and getMediaForAreas() methods refactored here from the blog plugin for more general use
  • new aHtml::htmlTextToHtml() method is handy if you have text which is already entity escaped but you still want newlines to become line breaks and URLs to become links
  • don't close the entire page settings dialog when someone clicks on an autocompleted tag suggestion
  • slideshow slots now have 'ui' and 'limit' options
  • new uploadMediaWrapper partial provides a convenient point to override uploadMultiple without losing the ability to include it
  • suppressed noisy exif output in aImageConverter
• apostropheBlog:
  • new _sidebarLayout partial makes it easy to reorder the components of the blog sidebar and add new material without overriding all of our code and risking bc problems
  • media items in blog post teasers obey app_aBlog_media_excerpt_width, default to app_aBlog_media_width
  • aBlogImporter class now accepts a 'clear' option, which has to default to true for bc, but at least you can choose to import more stuff rather than clobbering everything
  • apostrophe:import-blog task now accepts a --clear option and does NOT trash everything you already have in your blog by default
  • new 'showDates' and 'showCategories' options to the blog sidebar partial now allow you to conveniently shut off display of date and category filters
