[Gtkradiant] 1.6.4 build updated (Re: GtkRadiant 1.6.4 for Windows: shots fired!)

[Timothee Besset]

Updated GtkRadiant 1.6.4 build:

http://gtkradiant.s3-website-us-east-1.amazonaws.com/GtkRadiant-1.6.4-20130630.zip

CHANGES:
- Quake2World and vanilla Quake2 support from jdolan (see http://quetoo.org/
)
- Star Trek Voyage: Elite Force game pack from GSIO01
- Jedi Academy gamepack is included
- bspc.exe is included in the build again
- added a missing dll that prevented the x64 version of q3map2 from starting
- support selecting and dragging multiple vertexes in vertex edit mode
- add *.ogg and *.* options to the sound selection

The inclusion of all those gamepaks has bumped the size of the zip to 90M.
I think that's still reasonable and doesn't warrant per-game packages or
download on demand stuff.

MacOS X version:
Thanks to jdolan we also have a MacOS X build in the works. It's rather
experimental, and some documentation is needed, but you can try it out on
the github issue <https://github.com/TTimo/GtkRadiant/issues/90>.

Cheers,
TTimo
