Allow event idle advisor v01 none

Description Paul Webster CLA 2011-12-12 14:22:51 EST 
org.eclipse.ui.parts.tests.PartsReferencesTestSuite depends on implementing org.eclipse.ui.application.WorkbenchAdvisor.eventLoopIdle(Display) but in Eclipse 4, we have no hook for the event idle loop yet.

Without this, all of its tests hang.

Allow event idle advisor v01

The part rendering engine takes "advice" from the IEventLoopAdvisor.

This patches allows PartsReferencesTestSuite to finish.  It takes 2626 seconds to run.

This is compared to 26 seconds.
