If hidden-timeout=2 is set in gfxboot.cfg, then only show access.pcx at
...
the bottom of the screen, not the logo as well, to alleviate problems
caused by aspect ratio distortion. For awkward internal reasons this
currently requires a blank.pcx to exist that has the same dimensions as
splash.pcx but is just a blank screen of the appropriate colour.

Add a "screen-colour" option to gfxboot.cfg (should really be
...
"background", but that's already (mis)used). This sets a flood-fill
colour for the screen, as well as setting menu.bar.color and xmenu.dark.

Before displaying the splash screen, initialise the menu far enough so

If hidden-timeout=1 is set in gfxboot.cfg, then try to display a splash
...
window before the main window, displaying the contents of access.pcx at
the bottom of the screen. If the timeout expires on this screen, then
the default menu item will be booted without ever showing the main menu;
conversely, any key press will show the main menu. The idea of this is
to avoid everyone having to see a complicated main menu, while offering
a visual indication that you need to press a key to get to it.

* Remove the unused dia_install.inc and everything associated with it

(including translated strings). We've been having odd problems with
gfxboot hanging on Kubuntu CDs, and, while unfortunately we didn't quite
get to the bottom of them, our best guess is that we're close enough to
the top of available memory that the rules have changed. Ripping this
3000 lines of cruft out seems to be more than enough to get things going
again. Thanks to Kees Cook for several hours of staring at assembly code
and pointing me in useful directions.

* Implement "label NAME", "append NAME", "replace NAME", and "applies

NAME" options in gfxboot.cfg. These are used to implement a new Modes
menu, which replaces the video menu on F4. The intent is that that this
should reduce the bewildering array of top-level menu options, while
still allowing the less usual options to be selected easily. Many
strings have been changed accordingly.
