deletions from libgpewidget

The start of 2003 seems like a good time to clear out some old cruft
from libgpewidget. So, from version 0.42, these things will be removed:

 - the GtkMiniFileSelection widget (use GtkFileSelection instead)
 - the GtkGpePixmap widget override
 - functions gpe_render_pixmap and gpe_render_pixmap_alpha

gpe_render_icon still exists, but is now simply a wrapper round
gtk_image_new_from_pixbuf. Applications should call the latter function
directly for preference. Use of GtkPixbuf should be avoided wherever
possible: this widget is deprecated and doesn't work with display
migration.

The only one of these that I expect to cause any noticeable disruption
is GtkMiniFileSelection, which is used by a handful of programs.
However, the conversion to GtkFileSelection is fairly painless, so I
don't think it should be too big a deal.
