Mounting all volumes

With #500 implemented, Licorn® now supports mounting any kind of volumes on the local machine, provided you add extensions.volumes.mount_all_fs = True in your /etc/licorn/licorn.conf file.

This makes licornd provide the same functionnalities as udisks, allowing to avoid it completely when you run licornd on your laptop or desktop machine.

End-User-formatted (vfat/nfts/iso9660/udf) volumes will be mounted with the UID of the console user. Other types (ext*/btrfs/reiserfs/xfs/jfs) will be mounted the standard way, with acl and user_xattr options.

If for any reason you plug your device in before logging in on your machine, just launch the following commands: 

del vol -a
add vol -a

And licornd will remount the volumes accordingly for you.

Note: I didn't test the behavior when logged in remotely. I don't think an ssh remote login will be treated like a normal local login. This will probably be implemented in a future enhancement if needed.

Volumes and Rdiff-backup extensions entered the repository

Theses extensions are ready for wider testing. They have their documentation setup ( volumes and  rdiffbackup).

A major thread rewrite has been done during this dev cycle.

CLI and WMI related parts are coming in.
