to cserve2.
Big commit that implements the entire functionality. Besides loading
fonts and glyphs, and sharing the glyph bitmaps with clients, it also
adds:
- new request system, with a much better abstraction;
- new working slaves management;
- slaves can be threads or process now;
- started a debugging and statistics implementation on server.
The image caching part still uses the old request and slaves system, but
should be changed to use the new one soon and get more easily
maintainable.

now seriously...
Introducing Cache Serve 2.
This cache server will initially load images for clients connected to
it. It starts slave processes to load these images, and share the loaded
images through shm with the clients. All the connection done between
clients and the server goes through sockets.
The cserve2 build option is turned on by default, while the old cserve
was disabled, but in order to make clients use it, the environment
variable EVAS_CSERVE2 must be set, and a server must be running.
Clients will try to find the socket on a specified location using the
environment variable EVAS_CSERVE2_SOCKET. If it's not defined, then the
XDG_RUNTIME_DIR path should be used, and finally HOME, TMPDIR and /tmp.
