PPM: enhanced splitting of exe,dev,doc,nls packages

Continuing with enhancing of the Puppy Package Manager, see previous post:
http://bkhome.org/archive/blog2/201205/ppm-multi-keyword-search.html

The PPM main window has checkboxes labeled "EXE", "DEV", "DOC" and "NLS".

The "EXE" checkbox was broken. The "exe" packages (anything other than doc, dev or nls) were not filtered out when the checkbox was unticked. Fixed.

I have enhanced these checkboxes. Previously they only worked on PET packages, and only those packages conforming to the "_EXE", "_DEV", "_DOC" and "_NLS" naming scheme, for example 'abiword_DOC-1.2.3.pet'.

This has been extended to recognise the package naming used in Debian and Ubuntu. DEB packages have these strings in the names:

-doc_
-docs_
-dev_
-langpack
-lang-
