Review request for Plasma and Shawn Starr.


Changes
-------

- Corrected parsing of the Observation Time causing incorrect determination of 
day/night (offset mismatch)
- Added overloaded IonInterface::getWeatherIcon()


Summary
-------

Possible patch to allow the NOAA weather ion to determine the weather condition 
icon as defined at <http://www.weather.gov/xml/current_obs/weather.php>  This 
allows it to work with the weather-wallpaper plasmoid as well as display the 
condition icon in the weather plasmoid.  Categorization/mappings of condition 
to icon are arbitrary (as I saw fit) so feel free to point out any improvements 
or errors.

Questions:
a) Minor issue: Seems like the interface to IonInterface::getWeatherIcon(const 
QMap<QString, ConditionIcons> &conditionList, const QString& condition) is a 
bit restrictive since it's making assumptions that the implementors of 
IonInterface are using a list to manage their condition icons (the submitted 
patch doesn't). Wouldn't it be more flexible for it to only require an 
IonInterface::ConditionIcons as an argument, or maybe overload it for 
compatibility purposes?

b) Noticed that conditions icon files for weather-scattered-storms-night and 
weather-scattered-storms-day are missing.  Not sure if this is a work in 
progress or if the corresponding ChanceThunderstormDay/Night are deprectaed; 
anyway, the patch includes them for now.

Testing
-------

Tested with a number of random locations and compared them to the reported 
weather condition on NOAA's website.


Thanks,

Amos
