[BioC] Horizontal text in Gviz title panel.

[Hahne, Florian]

Hi Graham, Dan,
I just submitted a patch to the devel branch (v 1.5.13) that adds the
'rot.title' display parameter. If you set this to 0 the text will be
plotted horizontally. Please note that currently the text rotation is not
evaluated when the optimal font size for the title font and the title
panel width is computed, so you will have to play with this a bit. The
cex.title and title.width parameters should be helpful for that.
Cheers,
Florian
