[Dextrose] Sugarizing applications

After some tests I've made a template for sugarizing applications into
activities, based on libsugarize.so
(http://download.sugarlabs.org/services/libsugarize/), with some
provisions to make it platform independent.

The template activity is at http://people.sugarlabs.org/quidam/Sugarize-42.xo

It can be used to run any graphical application as an activity, taking
care of runing it fullscreen and setting the X properties for the
window (_SUGAR_ACTIVITY_ID and _SUGAR_BUNDLE_ID) so it closes
properly. Of course, it does not handle anything related to journal
integration, sharing, etc.

The example in the template runs xterm.
