Rename Direction enum to FocusTraversalDirection
------------------------------------------------

                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIVOT-427
             Project: Pivot
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: wtk
            Reporter: Greg Brown
            Assignee: Greg Brown
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 1.4.1


It is somewhat arbitrary to define direction as "forward" and "backward", and 
this enum is used almost exclusively for focus traversal. The only other place 
it is used is in the delete() method of TextArea and TextInput, which uses 
Direction.BACKWARD to represent "backspace". This makes some sense, but 
Direction.FORWARD doesn't really correspond to "delete". This method should 
instead take a boolean "backspace" argument that would be used to distinguish 
between backspace and delete. Then the only use of the Direction enum would 
truly be focus traversal, and the name "FocusTraversalDirection" is more 
appropriate.
