AdapterFactory changed scope

The org.eclipse.rwt.AdapterFactory changed its scope. Until now, it had so called session scope. Each session had its own instance of a registered AdapterFactory. Now, the AdapterFactories live in application scope, meaning that there is exactly one instance of every registered AdapterFactory type.
Only those applications that register their own implementations of AdapterFactory are affected by this change. The AdapterFactories used by RWT internally have been adapted to this change. For the reasons that led to this change, please see bug 342302: Move AdapterFactory into application scope. We apologize for any inconveniences this may cause.

The above features are just the ones that are new since the last stable build. Summaries for earlier builds:
