Improves AvalonDock, DateTimePicker and PropertyGrid controls.
Features

- Expanding auto-hidden LayoutAnchorables now always selects the LayoutAnchorable where the auto-hide button was clicked.

- Removing LayoutAnchorables now stretches the remaining LayoutAnchorables in the available space.
- Czech localization is now supported.
- The NavigatorWindow now supports navigation with the arrow keys.
- Using the context menu to dock a LayoutAnchorable floating window as a tabbed document now keeps the “X” in the header to close the LayoutAnchorable.
