New features and updates

[fctr]

I made 2 changes in the script that do the following:

1. Replaced fbset with tvservice. tvservice uses actual HDMI output settings

...
# If enabled, autodetect display mode, check for layout config file for that
# mode, and load that file if present.
if [ "$displaydetect" = "true" ]; then
        if [ "`grep disable_overscan /boot/config.txt | egrep -v ^#`" = "disable_overscan=1" ]; then
                # This is what I'm talking about
                mode="`tvservice -s | sed 's/.*\], //' | sed 's/ @ .*//'`"
                if [ -r /etc/displaycameras/layout.conf.$mode ]; then
                        . /etc/displaycameras/layout.conf.$mode
                        displaydetectactive=true
...

2. Added option force4x4 to calculate and automatically use four windows equally divided on the current output screen.

...
else
        . /etc/displaycameras/layout.conf.default
fi

if [ "$force4x4" = "true" ]; then
        mode="`tvservice -s | sed 's/.*\], //' | sed 's/ @ .*//'`"
        vwidth="`echo $mode | sed 's/x.*//'`"
        vheight="`echo $mode | sed 's/.*x//'`"
        vwidthhalf="`expr $vwidth / 2`"
        vheighthalf="`expr $vheight / 2`"
window_positions=(
"0 0 $vwidthhalf $vheighthalf" \
"$vwidthhalf 0 $vwidth $vheighthalf" \
"0 $vheighthalf $vwidthhalf $vheight" \
"$vwidthhalf $vheighthalf $vwidth $vheight" \
)
fi
...

OK, so here's the final update.

I added a few options to make this a little nicer.
