Support the VMware Cursor Position extension on vncviewer
This change makes it possible for re-synchronizing the remote cursor on
the vncviewer when in fullscreen mode. This is done by locally moving
the cursor position to what the server thinks it should be.
Now SDL games should work!
Add support for notifying clients about pointer movements
This change adds support for the VMware Mouse Position
pseudo-encoding[1], which is used to notify VNC clients when X11 clients
call `XWarpPointer()`[2]. This function is called by SDL (and other
similar libraries) when they detect that the server does not support
native relative motion, like some RFB clients.
With this, RFB clients can choose to adjust the local cursor position
under certain circumstances to match what the server has set. For
instance, if pointer lock has been enabled on the client's machine and
the cursor is not being drawn locally, the local position of the cursor
is irrelevant, so the RFB client can use what the server sends as the
canonical absolute position of the cursor. This ultimately enables the
possibility of games (especially FPS games) to behave how users expect
(if the clients implement the corresponding change).

Implements support in both client and server for the extended
clipboard format first seen in UltraVNC. Currently only implements
text handling, but that is still an improvement as it extends the
clipboard from ISO 8859-1 to full Unicode.
This adds the basic infrastructure and handshake for the QEMU
Extended Key Events extension. No viewer or server makes use of
the extra functionality yet though.
Add support for TurboVNC pseudo-encodings and Grayscale JPEG compression so that, when a TurboVNC viewer is connected, the TigerVNC Server will behave exactly like the TurboVNC Server.
Eliminate GCC signed/unsigned warnings related to encodings: The
encoding in the RFB protocol has always been signed, and signed values
are also used in the specification (ie DesktopName = -307 etc). In the
code, however, unsigned types were used in a number of places, but not
all, which causes warnings. This patch fixes the problem by switching
to signed values everywhere.

Implemented support for DesktopName pseudo encoding, which allows
updating the desktop name on the fly.
Tested in ThinLinc since 2008-01-07.
