"Do not show document change notification dialog when MRU switch is in 
progress

When switching between MRU documents, Geany pops up a dialog about 
document change even for the intermediate non-final documents. This 
leads to both reload dialog and document switch dialog displayed at the 
same time and termination of document switching because the newly 
displayed dialog takes focus.

This patch disables reload checks for the intermediate documents and
forces reload check for the final document."

--------

"Do not ignore system() return value to eliminate compiler warning"

--------

"Drop 'already' from the message in project close confirmation dialog

Suppose you have project A open and want to open project B. Then the 
message saying "The 'A' project is already open" displays. This is 
slightly confusing and feels like if you were trying to re-open project 
A even though you are opening different project. The message without 
'already' looks clearer in this context."

--------

"Modify project dialog signals

Rename project-dialog-create signal to project-dialog-open because now 
the dialog exists all the time and the signal name is misleading. Add 
project-dialog-close signal to indicate that project dialog has been 
closed and plugins can remove their tabs when needed.

In addition, bump plugin API and ABI version."

--------

Just to give everyone who hasn't checked the commits an idea of the 
verbosity that those commit messages has.
