[Qgis-developer] Expression based labeling

[Nathan Woodrow]

Got my dev env back up and running and finished exams so I have patched the
code to handle showing direction for multi line labels and removed the
option to toggle multi line labels.

Pull request at: https://github.com/qgis/Quantum-GIS/pull/54

Note: There is also some small UI tweaks to the expression builder in that
request.
