Summary: Mac style app modal dialog boxes

Initial Comment:
It is customary on the Mac that application modal
dialog boxes ( read: non-sheets, basically windows that
call wxDialogVar->ShowModal() ) have a specific feel to
them, and no close boxes. (See
<http://developer.apple.com/documentation/UserExperience/Conceptual/OSXHIGuidelines/XHIGWindows/chapter_17_section_6.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/20000961-BACFBACB>
 for more detail)

This patch enables this functionality. Although I don't
like the current interface (setting an extra style, and
doing it before the wxDialog::Create method gets
called, is a pain), that can easily be changed.
