Added methods to allow parsing from strings.

Added method to check for partial statements.

Update to Raptor version 0.9.12 (RDF/XML and N-Triples parser) - see
Raptor NEWS
for changes since 0.9.8.
Extensive portability and other bug fixes.
See the 0.9.13 Release Notes for the full list of the changes.
FORMAT CHANGE The persistent storage format was
changed to support RDF typed literals and this will require an
upgrade of any existing Berkeley/Sleepycat DB stores created by
Redland 0.9.11 or earlier. A utility redland-db-upgrade is
provided that creates an updated store from an existing one.
API CHANGE Iterator and Stream classes. The next/get_next method is split into get_object always returning a shared object and next methods. get_context method added. (get_object is called current in higher level language APIs)
API CHANGE Model class. Method add_statement no longer takes ownership of the passed in statement. The caller now retains ownership.
API CHANGE Model class. Method add_statements no longer frees the passed in librdf_stream; the caller must free it now.
API CHANGE Node and Model classes. Added RDF Datatyped Literals. Other literal is_wf_xml constructors and methods deprecated.
API CHANGE All literals methods and constructors have no
mention of the never-used or supported XML Space argument which is not part
of an RDF literal.
Added a script utils/update-api-0912.pl
to help automate the API changes as far as possible or warn about those
that cannot be automatically updated.
Added contexts - Statements added to Model (when using a Storage that
supports contexts) can take an optional Node, returned by the new
get_context method on Iterator and Stream classes.
Many portability and compiling fixes (OSX, gcc 3.x, FreeBSD, non-gcc compiler)
Java API classes. Add finished() method replacing useless finalize().
Use Raptor message callbacks to get parser warnings and errors
Build Java API working around the stupid things recent SWIG versions do.
