NEWT API Change !

Fix Bug 600 and Bug 721: Adding support for multiple monitors w/ NEWT
   
  - Support for all monitor devices and their available modes
    - X11: Use RandR 1.3 if available
    - Retrieve information
    - Changing a monitor device's mode
   
  - Support for dedicated and spannig fullscreen
    - See <http://jogamp.org/files/screenshots/newt-mmonitor/html/>
   
  - TODO:
    - X11 RandR does _not_ relayout the virtual screen size
      and neither the CRT's viewport.
      We may need to relayout them if they were covering a seamless region
      to achieve same experience!
   
    - OSX: No machine to attach a secondary CRT -> TEST!
   
  - Tested Manually for Regressions
    - Linux ARMv6hf (Rasp-Pi/BCM, Panda/X11)
    - Android (Huawei, Kindle)
   
  - Tested Manually and junit:
    - X11/Linux
      - NV, ATI-Catalyst w/ 2 CRTs
      - VBox w/ 4 CRTs
   
    - Win/Windows
      - NV, w/ 2 CRTs
      - VBox w/ 4 CRTs
   
    - X11/OpenIndiana, NV, 1 CRT
