Screenshots for all FormFields

Description

images are worth a thousand words: developers can grasp what a formfield does effectively by having a screenshot (e.g. an image of three small input-fields are more self-explanatory than a "DMYDateField"-classname). for more complex fields we could also show different states (e.g. autocomplete-fields)

its probably worth leaving this until after the interface-overhaul slated after the 2.2 release.

thanks wojtek! i've commented on the ghop-issue. we're still figuring out our permissions for opensource contributors, for now only silverstripe-staff and some longterm GSOC-contributors can close tickets. we had some cases in the past where tickets we raised were closed although uncompleted/unreviewed, we need to keep a bit of overview.

for later reference, wojtek had implementation problems with these fields, still need screenshots: ImageFormAction?, FileIFrameField, MoreLessField?
