new splashscreens "none" and "simple"

[Lubos Lunak]

 Hello,

 the attached patches reduce my KDE startup time 12s->11s (hot caches, 
3xKonsole,Klipper). The time is basically saved by avoiding ksplash 
altogether.

 The first new "splashscreen" is the none splashscreen. It's the most 
efficient splashscreen possible ;), and it's kinda boring (reminds of 
KDE1.x). The "simple" splashscreen actually even is a splashscreen, coded 
completely in Xlib, so it's very efficient. And it's also very tedious to 
code, just in case you wonder why it's only black&white and no texts. Since 
it doesn't use dcop, it needs also patching kded, ksmserver, kwin, kicker and 
kdesktop to send X messages about the progress.

 One thing I'd need to check is that I added it properly to KSplashML. It 
works for me, but I'm not sure it did it the way it's supposed to be, 
KSplashML seems to be a bit complicated for being just a splashscreen.

 And BTW, I don't propose that either of these splashscreens becomes the 
default.

 Comments?
