[OpenLayers-Dev] Adjustments on Popups for proper calculation of the autosize

Hi,

During the last month I have been investigating two problems with the
automatic sizing of Popups:

  * Extra padding:
http://jorix.github.com/OL-FeaturePopups/OL-Popup-issues/autoSize-padding-dev.html
  * Narrow content when displaying scroll bar:
http://jorix.github.com/OL-FeaturePopups/OL-Popup-issues/popups-overflow-dev.html

It has been a nightmare. After adjusting a function other problems appear,
and each browser has special behaviors, but there is a big winner: IE! :-(

A consequence of all this I have opened six Pull requests:
        https://github.com/openlayers/openlayers/pull/507 Get right size
when force height or width.
        https://github.com/openlayers/openlayers/pull/485 Get right
scrollbar width.
        https://github.com/openlayers/openlayers/pull/533 Using IE no parent
is a object!
        https://github.com/openlayers/openlayers/pull/544 Extra padding.
        https://github.com/openlayers/openlayers/pull/565 Fractional size
using IE9.
        https://github.com/openlayers/openlayers/pull/566 Take into account
scroll bar to calculate min/max size.

... and:
        https://github.com/openlayers/openlayers/pull/543 To stop using
manual tests for this kind of checks.

Please review, thanks.

Regards,

Xavier
