Stores information about available shortcodes as an option and provides a method
to easily add a media button with configurable options.

== Description ==

The plugin take all of the data registered and created a multi-dimensional 
array in an option called '_shortcodes'. Existing shortcodes that WP is away of
are also stored here with just their name and callback.

A few static methods for checking on shortcode info are provided.
`GetShortcodeAtts($shortcode_name)`
`ShortcodeInPost($shortcode_name, $post_id)`

Creating a new media button in the editor is easy with the `add_media_button()` 
method. Just pass your shortcode name, attributes, a page title, introductory 
text, and an icon image url.
