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.
Fixes #46

D3m stands for demo device driver manager. It is the service responsible for implementing device-driver policies such as probing for a boot device or merging user input coming from different input devices (USB HID and PS/2). The actual device drivers are executed as child processes of d3m. At the current stage, d3m is primarily geared towards bootable live CD images.
