A new runsics script has been implemented in python (runsics.py). It supports the new "fakedev" simulation mode which runs SICS with real drivers for devices which have simulated controllers. There are advance options which allow multiple instances of SICS to be launched on development and test environments. Also we no longer depend on having serverport numbers in /etc/services.

Initial implementation of Dingo Camera driver. Takes a single shot or a multishot.
