[platform-ui-dev] [CN]: Interfaces moved to API Package + Fixed unit tes

[Michael Elder <mdelder@xxxxxxxxxx>]

The interfaces "ICommonContentProvider" and
"INavigatorContentServiceListener" have been moved to the API package
org.eclipse.ui.navigator.

The extension point navigatorContent no longer supports the ability to
specify a custom INavigatorContentExtension class; instead, clients must
define a content provider and label provider independently. There are no
known clients of this functionality in the 3.2 stream.

New API have been added to INavigatorContentService for programmatic
extension activation:


      /**
       * Enable the given extensions. Optionally disable all other
extensions.
       *
       * @param extensionIds The list of extensions to enable
       * @param toDisableAllOthers True will disable all other extensions;
False will leave the other enablements as-is
       * @return A list of all INavigatorContentDescriptors that were
enabled as a result of this call.
       */
      public INavigatorContentDescriptor[] enableExtensions(String[]
extensionIds, boolean toDisableAllOthers);

      /**
       * Disable the specified extensions. Optionally enable all other
extensions.
       *
       * @param extensionIds The list of extensions to enable
       * @param toEnableAllOthers True will enable all other extensions;
False will leave the other enablements as-is
       * @return A list of all INavigatorContentDescriptors that were
enabled as a result of this call.
       */
      public INavigatorContentDescriptor[] disableExtensions(String[]
extensionIds, boolean toEnableAllOthers);

These changes were tracked by the following defects:

118103 [CommonNavigator] NPE from NavigatorActivationService
118112 [CommonNavigator] Add API to programmatically enable/disable
extensions
118057 [CommonNavigator] ICommonContentProvider should be API
