[Lcdproc] Renewed server input buffer

[Markus Dolze]

Hello,

back in February I started a discussion about how to improve LCDd's way to buffer incoming client messages (see http://lists.omnipotent.net/pipermail/lcdproc/2009-February/012744.html).

I now completely rewrote the input buffer handling and introduced a circular buffer for incoming messages.

As I would like to commit this soon, I encourage everybody to try it. It runs stable for days on my displays right now.

One additional improvement could be to have such a buffer per client. Right now there is one such buffer for the whole server and the buffer is cleared when it exits sock_read_from_client() for a single client.

Regards,
Markus
