Object mode Selection options brought back for view3d.select

- 'center', while Ctrl is held select objects from their center location
- 'enumerate', while Alt is held, give a list of objects under the mouse
- Object selection menu now uses icons with names
- operator object.select_name(name, extend=False)
- keybindings so combinations of Ctrl/Alt/Shift can be used (like in 2.4x)
- logic text input field was using deprecated ID_SCRIPT rather then ID_TXT

details
- added comments to DNA_ID.h ID types
- removed unused ID types Sector and Life
- added uiIconFromID() to get an icon from the object.
- using name for selection is weak but currently there isnt a really good way to do this.
