Renaming in libtinymail-camel started



Hackers,

I started renaming types in libtinymail-camel. It's going to happen type
per type.

The first types I renamed are TnyAccount and TnyStoreAccount to
TnyCamelAccount and TnyCamelStoreAccount.

TnyFolder -> TnyCamelFolder, TnyMsg -> TnyCamelMessage, TnyMimePart ->
TnyCamelMimePart and TnyHeader -> TnyCamelHeader renames will follow.

The application developer will not notice these changes, as the
application developer ALWAYS uses the interfaces. Except in the account
store implementation that uses libtinymail-camel. But the renaming will
not make API changes (just renaming the methods and types).

Note that I will soon also rename TnyMsgIface to TnyMessageIface.

This renaming will not yet remove the Iface suffix. It will, however,
rename the libtinymail-camel implementations to have "Camel" in their
name.

This will make removing the Iface suffic MUCH more easy. Removing the
Iface suffix means that also the libtinymailui-gtk types need to add the
word Gtk in their name. Once that is done, we can start with removing
these Iface suffixes.

Please assist me. If you would like to learn the internal tinymail code,
this is the perfect project to join up.
