This patch changes nitpicker's session interface to use session-local
view handles instead of view capabilities. This enables the batching
of multiple view operations into one atomic update.
This patch changes both the Input::Session interface and the skeleton
for the server-side implementation of this interface
('input/component.h').
The Input::Session interface offers a new 'sigh' function, which can be
called be the client to register a signal handler. The signal handler
gets notified on the arrival of new input. This alleviates the need to
poll for input events at the client side.
The server-side skeleton for implementing input services underwent a
redesign to make it more modular and robust. I.e., there are no
global functions needed at the server side and the event-queue
enable/disable mechanism is implemented at a central place (in the root
component) rather than inside each driver.
