New look for Emacs-23.0

Hi,

Please find attached a new set of splash images for Emacs-23.0. These
are anti-aliased versions of the current ones for Emacs and gnus. The
idea is that as font aliasing is a great improvement for next release,
I think that the visual and aesthetic aspect of Emacs should be also
slightly updated.

'splash.*' images should go to the 'etc/images/' directory; 'gnus.*'
images to 'etc/images/gnus/' ('svg' images are fully scalable and they
include copyright and licensing information; 'png' images were
directly obtained from the respective 'svg' images).

Below there are also a couple of patches, for files 'lisp/startup.el'
and 'lisp/gnus/gnus.el' files. These patches add support for 'svg' and
'png' image formats on those displays that support them. Otherwise,
current images are used ('xpm' or 'bmp' format, depending on the
display capabilities).
