Norman Feske 1a75c5227e Rename wm pkg to motif_wm 
This way, we can subsequently introduce a new 'wm' pkg that contains the
window manager only, w/o any hard-wired decorator and layouter.

       Subsystem for presenting GUI applications in floating windows


The package uses the motif-inspired default decorator. The decorator is
executed in a sub-init instance according to 'decorator_init.config'. This
allows us to easily override the decorator with another implementation (like
the themed decorator) provided by another package while keeping the overall
configuration of the wm subsystem.

As another advantage of hosting the decorator in a dedicated init instance,
it is possible to restart or replace the decorator at runtime by serving
the 'decorator_init.config' from a dynamic ROM service.
