Add functions/settings to control screen brightness / contrast. We could do
this the traditional cheesy way by altering the gamma ramp of the display
under Windows, but it would be slicker to add an overall gamma correction
value to the colour determination/blending code in the DirectX rendering code.
Using DirectX values guarantees that the display won't be left in a weird
state if mediate crashes for some reason.
Simple initial implementation with a slider control, perhaps with two
settings for day and night time.
Later we can add automatic dimming based on time of day and
lattidute/longitude details to compute sunset time. Alternatively this
could be driven via an input from the velleman plugin linked to vehicle
lighting.
