Bug fix release to fix accelerator and chevron problems.

Coolmenu accelerators caused problems - sometimes the menus triggered without the Alt- key being pressed, othertimes they did not trigger when they should. The logic has been rewritten to correct this.

Chevrons created by the toolbar did not trigger when clicked with the mouse. Fixed. The chevron now also uses a Menu window class as a base so it draws in the same way as menus on the system.

Some non-English keys did not work as accelerators. Fixed with code provided by Sergey Pitutin.

The Toolbar, Rebar and ToolbarHost controls could not be hosted on a UserControl. They now can. Thanks to Alexander Stetsenko for the information.

The MDI buttons in the toolbar host control now render using XP Visual Style if appropriate. Thanks to Nguyen Tuan Anh for the suggestion.

SaveLayout and RestoreLayout (beta) methods have been added to the Rebar based on a method suggested by Ralph Brugger at LinkPool. Feedback please!

I'm using your Toolbar and CoolMenu Control v3.5, it's a great tool but one thing: when I create a toolbar from a menu and set its DrawStyle = CTBDrawOfficeXPStyle, it doesnt show the underline for the shortcut key. And that seems to be the only way to set the font for the top level menus - the button that is shown on the toolbar (child menu font can be easily set throught the menu object).
