[core-dev] patches - better usability on other OSes, support for russian mp3 tags

Hello,

I'm checked all OS-dependent conditions in code and corrected some 
omissions like displaying "Helper apps" pane only on Linux or Solaris, 
while it must be displayed on any non-(windows or macos) OS. So, helpers 
and magnet links now should work on other OSes like FreeBSD or OS/2.

Also, in case if Unicode not used, mp3 tags readed with latin-1 charset. 
I believe it incorrect, system default charset must be used, with 
special cases for countries like Russia, where different OSes use 
different charsets, but mp3 tags always encoded with Cp1251.

And again, I wish ask about placing distributive "for other Java-enabled 
OSes" to download section of limewire.com. For example, some days ago my 
friend which uses FreeBSD ask me about good p2p filesharing application. 
Of course, I recommend LimeWire. He was little bit disappointed about 
which distributive he must download. I suggest download "Windows No VM" 
distributive. He download, but said "stupid site, where is crossplatform 
distributive?". He run LimeWire under FreeBSD, and found it nice and 
very useful. So, creating distributive "for other Java-enabled OSes" 
will be good, IMHO.
