Create new Version of Refl_gui using a UI file

[Keith Brown]

The original Ref_Gui is written (badly) in pure python, a UI file is needed to make it more maintainable and allowing enhancements to be made easier, specifically for the later tasks associated with #7377

At this time the dialog should stay the same

[Keith Brown]

Refs #8475 Old gui replicated into a .ui file

The UI file has been made and just needs running through the script that will create the python module.

Refs #8475 Fixing a dimension

I'd resized the hight to test that the other widgets resized too, but i'd forgotten to put it back.

It's worth noting that the old gui had a width of 1300 which wasn't suitable as that's wider that the most common resolution in use, 1024x768.

The default width is now 1000, the height remains 400.

Refs #8475 Python module created.

The Ui file has been run through pyqt4 and a script file has been generated.

Refs #8475 Creates srcpits to inherit from and run the new window

refl_window contains a class that inherits from the auto-generated file so that I can add funtionality.

refl_gui_run.py is a temperary file i'm using during development to run the window outside of mantid.

Refs #8475 Replaced old version of ISIS Reflectonomy within mantidplot

Mantidplot now uses my newer vesion of the interface. The interface itself had to have an import stement altered due to the different location of the scripts.

The table hadn't been initilised properly in ym new version, fixed it.

Refs #8745 Corrected the table initialisation code.

The code initialising the table was using old code which was refferring to the table widget by its old name. Fixed

(this references the wrong ticket on github, the nonexistent 8745)

[Keith Brown]

Found out that the transfer method isn't working at all even in the current release version.

Thus this ticket is being elevated to critical with the extension of making the existing functionality work as it should

[Keith Brown]

Refs #8475 Fixed Transfer function

The transfer function was failing because when groupget is called the parameter "wksp" has a workspace passed to it directly, this means that the original calls to mtd[wksp] would fail as AnalysisManager would expect a string.

Checks have been added to see what type wksp is before it's actually used, calling the AnalysisManager only if it's a string, otherwise useing the workspace as it is. It's also treated differently if it's a WorkspaceGroup vs any other kind of workspace.

Even if that call to the AnalysisMAnager had worked it was also discovered that WorkspaceGroup haddn't been imported from mantid.api so it would have complained there too.

Once all the syntax and parameter problems had been sorted, it was found that the way the run numbers were added to the table was wrong, so that has also been fixed.

This should only be tested by Owen

Refs #8745 Swapped file names and fixed some problems

refl_window and refl_gui have had thier names swapped to make more sense, as refl_gui was orinally the underlying window when actually being the interface wiht functionality would make more sense.

Discovered problems with the save, load and re-load functionality which I'm fixing.

previous commit went to wrong ticket

[Keith Brown]

Refs #8475 Save and Laod dialogs no longer throw on cancel

Before, when cancel was pressed on a save or load dialog it would throw an IOexception saying "file not found".

This was because the previous call was retrieving a string and when cancel was pressed that string was null. The script would then attempt to open whatever was in that string, regardless of the user pressing open/save or cancel.

In order to make it safer the dialog now calls the QFileDialog.exec_() in order to check if the user pressed Open/Save or cancel, then acts accordingly.
