Norman Feske c81af531a3 Turn framebuffer drivers into capture clients
This patch replaces the use of the "Framebuffer" session interface by
the new "Capture" session interface in all framebuffer drivers. Thanks
to this change, those drivers have become mere clients of the nitpicker
GUI server now, and are no longer critical for the liveliness of the GUI
server.

The patch touches the following areas:

- The actual driver components. The new versions of all drivers have
  been tested on the respective hardware. Generally, the drivers
  have become simpler.

- The drivers_interactive packages for various boards. The drivers
  subsystem no longer provides a "Framebuffer" service but needs a
  valid route to the "Capture" service provided by nitpicker.

- The driver manager of Sculpt OS.

- This patch changes the role of the test-framebuffer component from a
  framebuffer client to a capture server so that drivers (capture clients)
  can be directly connected to the test component without the nitpicker
  server.

- Framebuffer driver no longer support the unbuffered mode.

- The fb_bench.run script is no longer very meaningful because it
  interplays solely with nitpicker, not with the driver directly.

- All run scripts for graphical scenarios and the related depot
  archives got adapted to the change.
