[PATCH] dialog-payment fixes

Hi folks,

Here's a patch to fix a pet peeve I've had for quite some time with the
invoice payment dialog: Make it possible to enter just the invoice
(number), instead of always needing to select the owner manually. This
is especially useful when processing bank statements, when the invoice
number is listed on the statement.

I've added a second patch, for a bug I noticed while digging through the
code. Note that the inconsistent use of spaces in between a function
name and the opening brace for the arguments is to remain consistent
with the surrounding code (but dialog-payment.c uses different
styles...).

Patches are against current SVN trunk.

---------------
In the payment dialog, set the owner when an invoice is selected

Before, you would always need to select an owner manually. If you would
just select an invoice (which was possible, since the invoice selection
is not disabled when no owner has been selected yet), pressing OK would
error out because no owner was selected.

This patch makes sure that when an invoice is selected, but no owner is
selected yet, the right owner is filled into the owner selection box
automatically.

This also happens when the wrong owner is selected, which can happen
because the invoice autocompletion is not limited to invoices from the
selected owner, but always completes all invoices. This could cause
weird behaviour: Select an owner, then use completion to select an
invoice by another owner and press ok. This would cause the amount for
the invoice by the other owner to be charged against the first owner.
This patch prevents that by replacing the first owner by the other owner
in the dialog.

This patch also changes gnc_invoice_set_owner to no longer reset the
invoice selection to NULL. Instead, this is now handled by

Fix "Pay invoice" while the invoice dialog is open.

If you use "Pay invoice", normally a new payment dialog is opened which
is completely filled in. However, when there was already a dialog open,
it was reused but only the owner would be filled in. This patch makes
sure that the invoice and amount are filled in as well.
