Some systems (e.g. macOS) send massive amounts of pointer events, so
we need to start rate limiting things to something sensible by default.
One event per screen refresh should be more than sufficient.
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.

Increase the default compression level to cater to a broader range of users
(bandwidth is often the limiting factor, rather than CPU). Further increases
give little returns, so 2 is currently deemed the best tradeoff.

Make sure to include config.h in every compilation unit. Otherwise,
the necessary defines will only be visible as a side effect of
including other headers, leading to problems with things like
translations, which will fail in various places.

Implement recommendations from low-level performance study (undocument compress levels 7-9 in the GUI, since they do nothing but increase CPU usage, set the default compress level to 1, and include a note that levels higher than 3 are rarely useful)
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).
