Added an EvolutionActivityClient object to libeshell, to handle

updating of progress information from the component's side.  This
object allows to automatically set a lower limit to the delay between
CORBA calls towards the shell, so that the component isn't slowed down
too much by doing too frequent updates.

Also changed the test component to use this instead of doing CORBA
calls directly.

+	* evolution-test-component.c: Changed to use the
+	`EvolutionActivityClient' object.  New global static variable
+	`activity_client'.
+	(create_animated_icon): Removed.
+	(create_icon_from_pixbuf): Removed.
+	(task_bar_event_listener_callback): Removed.
+	(timeout_callback_1): Create an EvolutionActivityClient object and
+	put a pointer to it into `activity_client'.  Lower the timeout
+	delay from 1000 msecs to 100 msecs, so we can stress-test the
+	speed control code in EvolutionActivityClient.
+	(timeout_callback_2): Use the EvolutionActivityClient.  Increment
+	progress by 1, instead of 10.
+	(timeout_callback_3): Destroy the EvolutionActivityClient.
+
+	* Makefile.am (libeshell_la_SOURCES): Add
+	`evolution-activity-client.c'.
+	(eshellinclude_HEADERS): Add `evolution-activity-client.h'.
