The user might not always want to use all monitors when in fullscreen
mode, but instead only a few. This commit adds support for configuring
selected monitors from command line, in the config file and graphically
in the options menu.
Because it might be hard to guarantee the consistency of monitor
identifiers coming from third-parties (for example FLTK), it has been
decided to use our own numerical identifier. This identifier is based on
the monitor's positions. The mapping between this identifier and the
indices used by FLTK is done by MonitorIndicesParameter.
Before this commit, `FullScreen` and `FullScreenAllMonitors` could be
used to configure whether to use the current monitor in fullscreen,
or all monitors in fullscreen.
This commit deprecates `FullScreenAllMonitors` in favour of
`FullScreenMode` (which can either be `current` or `all`). This allows
for additional modes to be added, without the risk of having invalid
states (for example two activate two different fullscreen modes at the
same time).
A new concept has been added; read-only parameters. They are parameters
that will be read, but never written back. This allows for migration
paths to be constructed, where a parameter can be taken to consideration
but then for example be discarded, logged or changed into something else.
This has been used for `FullScreenAllMonitors` to provide a migration
path. On startup of vncviewer, if `FullScreenAllMonitors` is enabled,
`FullScreenMode=all` will be automatically enabled instead. The next
time the configuration file is written to disk, `FullScreenAllMonitors`
will then be removed.
Not every mouse has three buttons e.g. laptops. Some OS might not
have support for middle mouse button emulation.
This commit adds emulation for middle mouse button when pressing both
left and right mouse button simultaneously.
Add a new parameter 'alertOnFatalError' which guards
the displaying of the GUI alert on fatal errors, and
thus when false just gives the textual error.
Now I can do:
while true
do
vncviewer alertOnFatalError=false vm:0
sleep 1
done
and it'll reappear when my VM appears without me getting error
dialogs.

Previously the incoming clipboard was unconditionally set to both
the PRIMARY and CLIPBOARD selection. This isn't always what the
user want, so make it configurable.
Make it possible to load and save configuration files. Also, when
connecting, the options are saved as default settings. This patch
fixes SF bugs 3481470 and 3499216.

Implement client side multi-head support. Requires a FLTK patched to support
fullscreen over multiple monitors. Will properly report screen configuration
to the server, provided the server supports it.

Make it possible to dynamically resize the size of the session, when resizing
the viewer window, or when entering or leaving fullscreen mode. Initial
work done by Arthur Huillet and clohr.

Bah, not enough coffee today. I had already implemented the pointer rate
control, so it can be allowed to stay for now. And there were a bunch of
references to the local cursor option.

Local cursors are a pain to deal with and I doubt it's worth the effort to
keep around in the new viewer. Remove that option and the pointer rate
limiting (for similar reasons).
