 Allow denoting a post as a certain style/type/kind.  Some example styles
 are aside, gallery, link, quote.  This will allow themes to style these
 posts according to kind.

 This can be implemented as a custom taxonomy. wp_post_style, for example.
 Terms within wp_post_style would be the styles.  Some core styles will be
 pre-populated.  The slugs and names will be stored as English. Dummy
 gettext calls will get the strings into the catalog and later the fetched
 names can be run through translate().

 UI on the edit post form will allow selecting from one of the terms in the
 wp_post_style taxonomy.  Themes will be provided some simple API such as
 get_post_style() and has_post_style().  Themes can register support for
 particular styles with an add_theme_support() call.  This can be used to
 limit the style selections in the UI to those that the theme supports.
