I have commited what I have done already. What remains to be done is
to add a Floating::read(lyxlex) method. and handle that like
lyxlayout. A few details

- have the code allow to re-define an existing Float (like layout)

- add a CopyFloat tag

- add a NoFLoat tag

- to avoid upgrading problems, I think floats should be defined in a
  stdfloats.inc file which is automatically included in
  stdlayouts.inc. This way all textclasses will find it without any
  change. 

A problem I have is that layouts are indexed by their name, while
floats are indexed by their latex name (figure instead of Figure"). So
maybe the syntax  of layout files will be less uniform, but this is
not a big problem.
