These events are supposed to carry a pointer to the menu which was opened or

This makes the code (slightly) shorter and more clear and is more efficient as

When using C++11 we can provide implementations of wxApp::StoreCurrentException()

These methods can be used to ensure that the exceptions thrown from event
handlers are safely rethrown from the code dispatching the events once the
control flow gets back there.
This allows to work around the problem with not being able to propagate
exceptions through non-C++ code and can be used, for example, to catch
exceptions thrown by the handlers invoked from inside wxYield() by a try/catch
block around wxYield() -- something that didn't work before, update the except
sample to show that it does work now.

This demonstrates that under 64 bit Windows exceptions may not propagate
through the kernel code and throwing from inside wxYield() results in either
an immediate abort, even if the code calling wxYield() tries to handle the
exception, or, even more surprisingly, is just completely ignored.
See http://blog.paulbetts.org/index.php/2010/07/20/the-case-of-the-disappearing-onload-exception-user-mode-callback-exceptions-in-x64/
for more information.
Moreover, independently of Windows weirdness, throwing from wxYield() also
results in a difficult to debug crash when using wxGTK because C++ exceptions
can't propagate through C GTK+ code in this case.

Since r76202 InsertMenuItem is used when adding checkable menu items even

The path passed to this function is always a directory, so use
wxFileName::AssignDir() instead of the default constructor of wxFileName which
considers the name to be a name of a file unless it ends with a path separator.

This method allows to get the full width needed by wxPropertyGrid and is
useful for determining the space to allocate for it, e.g. when creating a
popup showing the property grid, as shown by the changes to the sample.

This keyword is not expanded by Git which means it's not replaced with the
correct revision value in the releases made using git-based scripts and it's
confusing to have lines with unexpanded "$Id$" in the released files. As
expanding them with Git is not that simple (it could be done with git archive
and export-subst attribute) and there are not many benefits in having them in
the first place, just remove all these lines.
If nothing else, this will make an eventual transition to Git simpler.
Closes#14487.
