[Issue 512] recursively add file properties

http://rapidsvn.tigris.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=512

I'd like to add support for at least a partial implementation of this request. 
I would really appreciate the ability to add/remove properties for multiple
files.  A couple of use cases:
1. I frequently need to add multiple files (binary formatted) into repositories
that enforce the use of svn:needs-lock.  At present, I have to go through each
of these individually to set the properties.  If importing a large number of
files, this becomes fairly painful.
2. Sometimes I want to remove the svn:executable property from multiple files
being added to a repository.

I guess one of the complications with implementing this request is that the
files may have existing properties (after "svn add" or for files already in a
repository), so how is these represented in the Property Editor dialogue.  I
guess there are existing UI metaphors in other systems that cater for this (e.g.
grey text for the property details not shared by all selected files, or the use
of check boxes on the left).

Recursive property setting would be nice, but at least being able to set new
properties for multiple files in the same directory would be a valuable enhancement.
