wxToolBar::GetToolSize() broken on wxGTK2.8.6?

Hi Vadim!

Thanks for answering so quick.

I _believed_ to need it for resizing a wxToolbook according either
its wxToolBar or the largest panel extent as mentioned in the
"Getting (maximal) size of wxToolbook"-thread (Message-ID:
<ualyfl2fybj.p3xvwoue0qt0$.dlg at 40tude.net>), but found this
to fail under wxGTK (the size was always too small).

I now use

  wxSize
    tbarsize=m_toolbook->GetToolBar(),                    // get size of toolbook's toolbar member
    tbooksize=m_toolbook->GetSize(),                      // get size of toolbook itself
    minSize(std::max<int>(tbooksize.x, tbarsize.x), std::max<int>(tbooksize.y, tbarsize.y)); // new minimal size
  m_toolbook->SetMinSize(minSize);

which seems to work much better and should be portable for
all toolbook orientations and OSs.

Cheers,
Volker
