fold elements on editor open support added

i have added support for initially folding subroutines and perldoc when
an editor is openned.

i've also shifted the "Content Assist", "Mark Occurrences", and "Templates"
preference page items under the "Editor" preference item (this more closely
mimics the behavior of the jdt prefs).

you may need to start up eclipse using the "-clean" option to see these
changes.

*sigh* - it appears i was a bit too over-zealous on this one, and was unclear
on how the folding logic works, so things were being refolded on every save.

obviously no good...

i've disabled folding of subroutines and perldoc for now (although all other
changes remain) and will get that ironed out over the weekend as i am in
need of this functionality.

update for anyone interested...

i've fixed the folding logic so things aren't unfolded when the reconciliation
thread runs (not saving), however i've also uncovered an issue w/ the parser
that will still cause elements to unfold correctly.

applogies to anyone who got excited over this, but you're gonna have to
wait a little longer.

support for this feature has been re-enabled. 

after further investigation, it seems that java folding performs more or
less the same way* when adding a new method right before an already existing
one. ie:

sub i_am_new
{

sub i_already_exist
{
}

if your typing pauses long enough to let the reconcilliation thread run
(although i feel epic is less annoying about it).

remember to add the -clean flag if you don't see the new preference menu
layout/options.

* the java folding displays a similiar behavior when it encounters this:

public

public void foo
{
}

where foo is folded. instead of expanding foo, the  previous public seems
to pull it into it's definition, but does not expand it (epic just leaves
it in place an expands it). 

if this is encountered before the reconcilliation thread runs while foo
is folded:

public v

foo remains folded (epic expands all folds until it finds something that
will close the block that was just started or end of file is reached).

Can you please add folding support for brackets too, not only for subprocedure?
for exemple:

IF (x=y)
{
coderow1
coderow2
coderrow3
}

will be after folding 
+IF(x=y)

please add this these exreme useful feature!!

Thank you very nuch!
