4.0

• Added support for WordPress 4.0.
• Replaced custom image selection view with WordPress default “image insert” view to add compatability with WordPress 4.0 while still retaining pre-WordPress 4.0 compatability. This introduces a “Gallery” insertion option in the view, but its ignored by the HW Image Widget if used.

• Made sure TinyMCE editor opens up in visual mode.
