- remove ddcxinfos, replaced by monitor-edid (which is in a separate package)
- add many resolutions (they are structured by aspect ratio for next move)
- put the "Monitor preferred modeline" from EDID in xorg.conf
- for this ModeLine must be exported from the monitor section
- specifying a VendorName|ModelName in auto_inst is valid, don't overwrite it with edid probe
- the strange /dev/zero needed (?) by ddcxinfos is no more needed
- field {size} is now {diagonal_size}, and is no more "corrected"
- add @CVT_ratios and @CVT_vfreqs (unused at the moment)
- Getopt::Long is needed by monitor-parse-edid
