Illustrations in sky culture descriptions

Registered by Bogdan Marinov

At the moment, there can't be any illustrations in sky culture description files, because sky culture folders have different locations on the different platforms. Moreover, a sky culture directory can be found in two different places - in the installation directory and in the user data directory. This makes using static relative paths ineffective.

A possible solution is to have a "variable" (e.g. $SKY_CULTURE_DIR) in the description file that will be replaced in runtime with the automatically detected path to the sky culture directory before the file is displayed.

An easier fix is to use the QTextBrowser::setSearchPaths() method.
