////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
// Read and construct a panel.
//
// The panel is specified as a regular property list, and each of the
// instruments is its own, separate property list (and thus, a separate
// XML document).  The functions in this section read in the files
// as property lists, then extract properties to set up the panel
// itself.
//
// A panel contains zero or more instruments.
//
// An instrument contains one or more layers and zero or more actions.
//
// A layer contains zero or more transformations.
//
// Some special types of layers also contain other objects, such as 
// chunks of text or other layers.
//
// There are currently four types of layers:
//
// 1. Textured Layer (type="texture"), the default
// 2. Text Layer (type="text")
// 3. Switch Layer (type="switch")
// 4. Built-in Layer (type="built-in", must also specify class)
//
// The only built-in layer so far is the ribbon for the magnetic compass
// (class="compass-ribbon").
//
// There are three types of actions:
//
// 1. Adjust (type="adjust"), the default
// 2. Swap (type="swap")
// 3. Toggle (type="toggle")
//
// There are three types of transformations:
//
// 1. X shift (type="x-shift"), the default
// 2. Y shift (type="y-shift")
// 3. Rotation (type="rotation")
//
// Each of these may be associated with a property, so that a needle
// will rotate with the airspeed, for example, or may have a fixed
// floating-point value.

 *
 * The following action types are defined:

 * "adjust" - modify the value of a floating-point property by
 *    the increment specified.  This is the default.
 *
 * "swap" - swap the values of two-floating-point properties.
 *
 * "toggle" - toggle the value of a boolean property between true and
 *    false.
 *
 * For the adjust action, it is possible to specify an increment
 * (use a negative number for a decrement), a minimum allowed value,
 * a maximum allowed value, and a flag to indicate whether the value
 * should freeze or wrap-around when it reachs the minimum or maximum.
 *
 * The action will be scaled automatically if the instrument is not

 * and many layers need to be moved or rotated simply to display the
 * instrument correctly.
 *
 * There are three types of transformations:
 *
 * "x-shift" - move the layer horizontally.
 *
 * "y-shift" - move the layer vertically.
 *
 * "rotation" - rotate the layer.
 *
 * Each transformation may have a fixed offset, and may also have
 * a floating-point property value to add to the offset.  The
 * floating-point property may be clamped to a minimum and/or
 * maximum range and scaled (after clamping).
 *
 * Note that because of the way OpenGL works, transformations will
 * appear to be applied backwards.
