WARNING: Following change may create regression for some external modules, but was necessary to make
Dolibarr better:

- The deprecated way (with 4 parameters) to declare a new tab into a module descriptor file has been removed. You must now use the 6 parameters way. See file modMyModule.class.php for example. 
- Remove the javascript function ac_delay() that is not used anymore by core code.
- Properties "dictionnaries" into module descriptor files has been renamed into "dictionaries".
- Method form->select_currency() has been removed. Use instead print form->selectCurrency().
- Method form->select_methodes_commande() has been renamed into english name selectInputMethod().
- The following hooks are now 'addreplace' hooks: "formCreateThirdpartyOptions" So check that return value is 0 to keep default standard behaviour after hook or 1 to disable default standard behaviour.
- Properties "civilite_id" were renamed into "civility_id".
- Remove add_photo_web() that is ot used anymore by core code.
