New preferences dialog

Hi all,

I just finished implementing a new preferences dialog (screenshots attached) and I'd appreciate a little feedback on the new design.

For those of you that run calibre from source, the changes are committed, you can try it out for yourself.

Some of the nice new features are:

1) You can restore settings to calibre defaults
2) More context sensitive help (tooltips)
3) A nice modular design based on plugins for easy expansion in the future.
4) A more discoverable layout
