 Vidalia ignores parameters and values that are separated by an equal sign.
 (ie: Vidalia --datadir=data --logfile=log)

 Attached patch updates parseArguments() to support keys and values
 separated by equal sign.


 Vidalia does not reject parameters that should include a value.
 (ie: Vidalia --datadir --logfile)

 Attached patch calls argNeedsValue() from validateArguments() to determine
 if value is required.  Vidalia notifies user if required parameter value
 is missing.

 NOTE: validateArguments() was static, so could not call argNeedsValue().
 No longer static.  If function needs to be static, could pass an instance
 of Vidalia as a function parameter instead.
