binary_store, direct access

While storing the binary data together with text pages in the same
database is most often a good thing and suits most sites, there
exists also a workaround/hack to keep this binary data in plain
files. The advantage is a smaller database and possibly a little
speed enhancement (with a large collection of binary things in the
db). However the drawback is, that use of plugins/binary_store is
only transparent to the main ewiki script, but all admin tools/
won't be aware of it.

If you choose to use the binary_store.php plugin, you can also let
ewiki generate URLs directly to the then stored data files if you
just set the EWIKI_DB_STORE_URL+ constant.

Please see the paragraph on this plugin for more informations on
this.
