Title:
  api-max setting for python plugins is only activated for stable
  releases

Status in Hugin - Panorama Tools GUI:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  The python plugins have an 'api-max' value to prevent older plugins
  being run with future releases of Hugin.

  However this restriction is only enforced for stable even-numbered
  releases, i.e. The plugins shipped with 2011.4.0 are disabled, but
  they are not disabled with 2011.3.0 and 2011.5.0 snapshots. See
  src/hugin1/hugin/PluginItems.cpp line 142.

  The problem is that since most people who are in a position to check
  this compatibility are using snapshots, they will never notice that
  the api-max value needs incrementing.

  So either:

  The api-max check needs to be removed altogether.

  ..or it should be automatically set to the current release number,
  since we should only be shipping compatible plugins.

  ..or it should be enforced for snapshots too - Making it more likely
  that it will get fixed when a developer notices that plugins are
  missing.
