faedb763ca NotificationServer: Allow showing an icon in notifications
We currently use icon paths for this because I didn't want to deal with
implementing icon bitmap sharing right now. In the future it would be
better to post a bitmap somehow instead of a path.

96c7e2cd6d LibGUI: Make a new connection to NotificationServer each time
Since NotificationServer is a spawn-on-demand + die-when-not-used type
of service, we can't expect a singleton connection to it to remain open
and useful.

We solve this for now by making a new IPC connection for every new
notification sent. Maybe there's a better solution for this.

9f54ea9bcd NotificationServer: Add a system service for desktop notifications
This patch adds NotificationServer, which runs as the "notify" user
and provides an IPC API for desktop notifications.

LibGUI gains the GUI::Notification class for showing notifications.

NotificationServer is spawned on demand and will unspawn after
dimissing all visible notifications. :^)

Finally, this also comes with a small /bin/notify utility.
