will not try to retrieve the retrace semaphore again and again
if the graphics cards doesn't support it for some reason
* disabled BScreen::WaitForRetarce() for now, since it will just
hang on ATI Radeon at least

* BPrivateScreen now buffers its frame for 0.1 seconds (so that calling it several
times in a row is both consistent and cheap).
* Added GetFrameBufferConfig() call to the HW interface (and implemented it).
* Added server commands AS_VALID_SCREEN_ID, AS_GET_NEXT_SCREEN_ID, and
AS_GET_FRAME_BUFFER_CONFIG.
* BPrivateScreen::BaseAddress() and BPrivateScreen::BytesPerRow() are now working.
* minor cleanup.

it works in the test environment, but I haven't yet tested it on real hardware.
* moved PrivateScreen.h to src/kits/interface/ - it's not used outside of that one.
* moved reading the color map from the BPrivateScreen constructor to the ColorMap()
method.
* improved/cleaned server/client communication for the screen stuff a tiny bit.
* fixed the GetBitmap() method I implemented yesterday.
