Issue #1086958 by effulgentsia: Use FileEntity instead of Media Entity.  Redefine the way files are formatted in Drupal, cold fusion, etc

adding a todo for issue http://drupal.org/node/1086966

Call up 'file' entities instead of 'media' entities in field_* calls; make the core file entity fieldable.

remove some hook_file_CRUD() implementations that are not necessary when we already have the file entity object. make sure that our file entity objects always have a bundle key set when we need it.

Make sure that file entities have a media bundle key ('type') set.

Fully removed definition of media entity. Now, we just have hook_entity_info_alter() for file entity.

Removed creation of file field on file entity. Will replace with 'extra_field'. Also removed dependency on Styles module. Will replace with lightweight formatter routing.

Removed file_usage_delete() hack made unnecessary by removing self-referential file field from the file entity. Also, made 'file' an 'extra_field' so it can be weighted in Field UI.

Removed media_load() and media_load_multiple() functions, since they're now redundant with file_load() and file_load_multiple(). Also, replaced calls to entity_load() with file_load_multiple().

Removed media_file_load() and media_entity_load(). They're unnecessary, as 'type' is automatically populated by virtue of being in the {file_managed} table. And we want loads to be as fast as possible, so removing stack calls helps.

Removing MediaEntityController. Hasn't been necessary for a while now, and especially with the move to file entities.

Unrelated to entity reorganization, but adding comment about why this redundant file is here.

Add a file_entity_api module to contain just the code needed for file entities to be fieldable and viewable. Will move the relevant Media code into here.

Initial migration of some code from Media to File Entity API

Added admin page for getting to the Field UI of a file type.

Removing "api" from file_entity modules, since a bare-bones UI is needed too.

Removing "api" from file_entity modules, since a bare-bones UI is needed too.

Doc cleanup

Some code organization cleanup

Much of the scaffolding for displaying a file entity. Now we just need to implement a UI for the 'file-displays' configuration page.

Doc and API cleanup

Added 'file-displays' UI

Fleshed out the API for assigning $file->type.

Yay. Full add/view/edit workflow is functional!

Updated file_entity_test.info to reflect dependency on file_entity.

Weird. Fieldsets without #weight can't participate in vertical tabs?

A bunch of Media module cleanup to work with new File Entity module. Probably still not working yet though.

Media field is working!

Moved image file formatter into file_entity module. Added file formatter bridge to file field formatters.

Added tester module for Media Youtube integration.

Ensuring that $file->type is never null, since Field API doesn't like it when bundle keys are null.

Removed old Media code that deals with NULL file types. File Entity now handles that.

Update function for switching to File Entity

Reinstated Media code that nags the administrator about files with missing types.

Missing type is now signified by empty string, not NULL.

Declaring all media view modes to have custom settings, as it effectively used to via prior media_enable() implementation.

Added default processing and better wysiwyg integration when Styles module not enabled.

Minor cleanup

Minor comments tweaking.

Updated code to work with new entity module (sadly a required mod now). Also got type filter working (required jQuery 1.4)

By ksenzee and JacobSingh: Overhauled the popup api, threw JS in libraries, nicer looking code (and works).  Also set it to use seven theme unless otherwise specified

Added dependency on dialog_api, got format form in alpha state.  Has a major bug though, try adding two images

Added ability for view_modes to be provided on install, made file_styles a dependency.  Also added test for the same, test currently fails because I can't deal with how slow the testing framework is and how hard it is to debug stuff...

Alpha field handling!  Re-did a lot of the complexity after a chat session w/ bjaspan made it clear that having the bundle or type of media (for fielding purposes) determined dynamically was not going to work and making a new table would be a PITA - but can be done later.  Anyway, see the media.install for an extended description.  Fields works now! (kinda)

- Added necessary files to module registry.
- Removed 'file' keys from hook_menu().
- Global media settings page fixed.
