GUI log events

The GUI protocol supports a special front-end event named "LogEvent", to add a marker in the GUI log, with some debug data.

When a log event is fired, it is written to the GUI logs as follows (FGLGUIDEBUG output):

... _om 123{}{{LogEvent 41 {{data " ... free-text ... "}}}}

The typical usage is with the Genero Ghost Client (GGC) tool, to implement non-regression tests: When running a program with a GUI front-end, a LogEvent can be triggered with the Alt-F12 key. The LogEvent events in the GUI log are then reused by GGC, for example to generate snapshots of the AUI tree.
