Instead of making a distinction between single frame images and Sprite
Sheets, I added a simple FrameData with one Frame to every image that
gets loaded. This way, a lot of the engine code can be simplified.
For instance, you can play animations on any Sprite without having to
check the “frame count” of its image anymore.
The engine doesn’t have to check for non-existing .frameData anymore.
An animation can keep on playing when an image happens to be set with 1
frame, continuing its animation when after that, another image is set
with multiple frames.
Think of it this way: an image with one frame is an animation of just
one frame.
Sprite.updateCrop is available if you wish to update an externally referenced crop rectangle.
Sprites and Images now have their own textures objects, they are no longer references to those stored in the global Pixi.TextureCache. This allows you to redefine the texture frame dynamically without messing up any other Sprites in your game, such as via cropping. They still share global Base Textures, so image references are kept to a minimum.
Sprite.resetFrame will revert the Sprites texture frame back to its defaults dimensions. This is called when you call Sprite.crop with no rectangle, to reset the crop effect, but can be userful in other situations so we've left it as a public method.
Pointer.withinGame is now accurate based on game scale and updated as the Pointer moves.
Stage.bounds is now updated if the game canvas offset changes position. Note that it gives the un-scaled game dimensions.

Timer.clearPendingEvents will purge any events marked for deletion, this is run automatically at the start of the update loop.
The main Timer loop could incorrectly remove TimeEvent if a new one was added specifically during an event callback (thanks @garyyeap, fix#710)
We've had a number of people in the channel ask for the ability to know when a file has started loading and to get the file names of said files.
Added the OnFileStart signal to do just that.
Remove "navigator.isCocoonJS" here as CocoonJS has neither window.DOMParser nor will a createElement('div') work under Accelerated Canvas/WebGL mode. (Under WebView mode, there will probably be a DOMParser object. Most have it.)
Loader.setPreloadSprite() will now set sprite.visible = true once the crop has been applied. Should help avoid issues (#430) on super-slow connections.
