FMod - WPF surrender

After considering all the advantages and disadvantage of Abiathar's WPF transition adventures, I decided today to revert the Abiathar code base back to before any of the WPF changes. While it would be nice to get the speed boost from a complete conversion, a lot of the Abiathar internal structure is based (directly or indirectly) on graphics working in immediate mode, which is simply not the case with WPF. The current speed is good enough on modern machines, and there are much more interesting advancements to be made than rendering finagling. So for now, I'm sticking with Windows Forms and GDI+.
