Fontify code in code blocks.

    * org.el (org-fontify-meta-lines-and-blocks): Alter main
    regexp to match code blocks with switches and header
    args. Call `org-src-font-lock-fontify-block' for automatic
    fontification of code in code blocks, controlled by variable
    `org-src-fontify-natively'.
    (org-src-fontify-natively): New variable

    * org-src.el (org-src-font-lock-fontify-block): New function
    called during font-lock
    (org-src-fontify-block): New function for manual fontification
    of code block at point.
    (org-src-fontify-buffer): New function to manually fontify all
    code blocks in buffer
    (org-src-get-lang-mode): New utility function to map language
    name as a string to major mode symbol

Based on an initial fontification patch by David O'Toole and
suggestions from Carsten Dominik.
