Frediano Ziglio c5059edb82 Remove red_pipe_add_verb family function
These functions were implementing the same stuff as empty
messages functions provided by RedChannel so reuse them.

The implementation seems a bit different but the result
is the same. Specifically:
- RedEmptyMsgPipeItem::msg is int while RedVerbItem::verb was
  uint16_t however this data goes into the message type which
  is uint16_t (a 16 bit on the network protocol);
- red_channel_client_send_empty_msg calls
  red_channel_client_begin_send_message while red_marshall_verb
  does not. However red_marshall_verb is called only by
  cursor_channel_send_item and dcc_send_item which always
  calls red_channel_client_begin_send_message.
  Note that in dcc_send_item when an empty message is sent
  red_channel_client_send_message_pending always returns
  true;
- when a PipeItem is created red_channel_client_pipe_add_empty_msg
  calls red_channel_client_push while red_pipe_add_verb does not.
  This actually make very little difference as this kind of item are
  never removed from the queue and a push is forced in every case
  running the event handler for the stream watch (see
  prepare_pipe_add and red_channel_client_event).

   SPICE: Simple Protocol for Independent Computing Environments
   =============================================================

SPICE is a remote display system built for virtual environments which
allows you to view a computing 'desktop' environment not only on the
machine where it is running, but from anywhere on the Internet and
from a wide variety of machine architectures.

Installation
------------

The SPICE package uses GNU autotools, so the build install process
follows the standard process documented in the INSTALL file. As a
quick start you can do

  ./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc \
        --localstatedir=/var --libdir=/usr/lib
  make
  sudo make install

Or to install into a private user specific location

  ./configure --prefix=$HOME/spice
  make
  make install

The following mandatory dependancies are required in order to
build SPICE

    Spice protocol >= 0.9.0
    Pixman         >= 0.17.7
    OpenSSL
    libjpeg
    zlib
    Cyrus-SASL

The following optional dependancies increase the available
functionality

    GE Gui         >= 0.6.0,  < 0.7.0   (GUI app support)
    OpenGL                              (GUI app support)
    Alsa                                (Linux support)
    XRandR         >= 1.2               (X11 support)
    Xinerama       >= 1.0               (X11 support)
    libcacard      >= 0.1.2             (Smartcard support)

Communication
-------------

To communicate with the development team, or to post patches
there is a technical mailing list:

   http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/spice-devel

There is also a mailing list for new release announcements:

   http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/spice-announce/

To view known bugs, or report new bugs, in SPICE visit

   https://bugs.freedesktop.org/describecomponents.cgi?product=Spice

Bugs found when using an OS distribution's binary packages should
be reported to the OS vendors' own bug tracker first.

The latest SPICE code can be found in GIT at:

   http://cgit.freedesktop.org/spice/
