Norman Feske c35207d9c4 Add mode_sigh and release to framebuffer::Session
The 'mode_sigh' function allows the client to receive notifications
about server-side display-mode changes. To respond to such a signal, the
client can use the new 'release' function, which acknowledges the mode
change at the server and frees the original framebuffer dataspace. Via a
subsequent call of 'dataspace', a framebuffer dataspace corresponding to
the new mode can be obtained. Related to issue #11.

Configuration
~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Nitpicker supports the following configuration options, supplied via
Genode's config mechanism.

:Tinting of clients in X-Ray mode:

  Nitpicker allows for assigning a color to single clients or a groups
  of clients based on the client's label. The following configuration
  tints all views of the launchpad subsystem in blue except for those
  views that belong to the testnit child of launchpad.
  ! <config>
  !   <policy label="launchpad"            color="#0000ff"/>
  !   <policy label="launchpad -> testnit" color="#ff0000"/>
  ! </config>
