REVISION SUMMARY Kcm and daemon can only communicate a limited data set through the backend. This feature patch adds an additional level of control by providing a one-way control channel through output and configuration control files. The first property to be controlled through this channel is the output retention. Other information shared in the future might be if a certain resolution or refresh rate was manually set by the user or is the result of an algorithm, so that the daemon on next startup can decide to recompute the optimal value. TEST PLAN Autotests updated, such that they are controled for now to only use indvidual retention.
