[PATCH] Support \\*

I'm attaching two patches, one against git master, the other against
the 2.3.x branch. These patches add a starred new line break
formatting option (\\*) to complement "Ragged line break", i.e. the \\
macro.
My specific use case for this is for short stanzas in a verse
environment: \\* will prevent a page break in the middle of a stanza.
For lack of a better term I've called this "Starred line break" though
I'm sure it can be renamed to something more appropriate. I've also
given it the keyboard shortcut of meta-shift-enter, which is in the
ballpark of the other newline-style formatting options.
I've been using this patch at least since the LyX 1.6.0 days, with no problems.
Whether this is the best way to support \\* I'm not sure, but I do
think having the ability to add \\* directly, rather than via ERT, is
very useful.
