Easily redirectable wp_loginout

Description

This modification to the core code of wp_loginout makes it so that users can specify where the viewers go after logging in/out with the same wp_loginout function. This patch also does not break old code, as wp_loginout() still works as normal.

My solution makes it so that you can redirect to wherever you want from the built-in function call without having to change the plugin/core code each time you wanted to redirect to a different page ( i tried but could not find a way to make this plugin-able), i.e. wp_loginout('loginRedirect=thispageinstead.php') or wp_loginout(logoutRedirect=thatpageinstead.php')

It allows for more theme-based functionality so you can redirect wherever you want from each wp_loginout().

The thing I linked is a plugin -- it's not for modifying any core files. Just upload and activate.

You could also use it to control them on an individual case, but it wouldn't be the most elegant:

global $redirectto;
$redirectto = 'http://www.google.com/';
wp_loginout();
global $redirectto;

// a modification of the code I posted before that uses $redirectto instead

So yeah, I guess having it as a parameter of wp_loginout() would be useful.
