#823 New class style. Instead of OldStyle = Class.create(); OldStyle.prototype = Class.inherit(Parent, prototype), we now use NewStyle = OpenLayers.Class(Parent, prototype). New style classes allow for backwards compatibility [you can use OldStyle = Class.create(); Class.inherit(NewStyle, prototype)]. The Class.create and Class.inherit functions are deprecated. Backwards compatibility will be removed at 3.0. Thanks Erik for the careful review.
