Added the SAFormatLayer, an extension that groups all the commands
related to visual aspects of range of characters, like font effects
(italics/bold/narrow/underline) and colors. It allows to change the
aspect of a single range of chars, or to a whole class of range of
chars.

Implemented a new buffer implementation that substitutes the rough
SAStringBuffer. SAStringListBuffer instead stores the buffer content
in a linked list of strings. It is not optimal but for almost all the
buffer operations it takes O(number of lines) instead of O(number of
chars).
