Add optional OVM support to show counts in infobar.

The cells icon is rather preliminary... would be happy about better graphics!

This won't make it into master. The Info plugins should be separate. The Info plugin for volume meshes is almost empty but the code should definitely go there.

That was my first instinct as well, however I wonder if that split really makes sense, a lot of functionality would be very similar.

From a practical perspective for this specific change: How would you propose interacting with the Infobar from the other plugin to add this information?

You can add another info bar via the interface. The mesh infobar is only visible if mesh objects are available as well. So should be no problem.

The plugin might be similar bar the widgets, drawings and infos should be different. And the plugins containing code for every type get larger and larger. If you want to build an OpenFlipper for a specific purpose you don't want to ship all that code.
