Allow users to choose photo album to display #4

Currently the required album must be set in the config file, it would be better in the users could select it in the web interface.

The gold solution would be for users to be able to select a number of albums and for the code to select photos randomly from all of them. In this case the code probably should only record each photo once, i.e. if a photo is in two albums it should not be twice as likely to be chosen. This can probably be achieved by storing the ids from the google api in a set.

For milestone 0.1.0 choosing a specific album will be enough, #6 will extend this to multiple albums.

Added suport for an album list in bfd0ecf76609658d9fde378c5c244b8b32f1cd26...1de7a4bf7bdc09e4b71ed910f12924f30c867d7e. This saves the list of albums in the photo manager and settings, and also writes it to the socket. The javascript side of things however will wait until after #13.

Working as of commit daf521cd80dc00ba4322d7d4bf29ae2ff1b90203, it was being slightly temperamental though so there bay be a bug I've not managed to track down.
