Summary: New driver (speechcmd) and new option to inhibitor

Initial Comment:
This patch adds new driver: speechcmd that keeps on sending configured speech command (a message to speak). It can be combined with imgcmp and inhibitor drivers: when motion is detected on camera image, a message can be heard from speakers. Unfortunately, this involved slight change to inhibitor driver: new option had to be added: msg_interval - speech driver needs some time for the message to be spoken, therefore speech commands shouldn't be sent too frequently. Example of use:
driver
(
 name "festival"
 provides ["speech:0"]
 libdir "/usr/share/festival"
)
driver
(
  name "inhibitor"
  provides ["switch:::dio:10" "comm:::speech:10"]
  requires ["comm:::speech:0"]
  init_state 0
  bitmask "1"
  msg_interval 0.7
# 0.7 sec, enough time to say "blurp"
)
driver
(
  name "imgcmp"
  provides ["output:::camera:0" "dio:0" "diff:::camera:10"]
  requires ["camera:1" "dio:10"]
  max_lum_dist 7
  max_diff_pixels 10
  skip_lines 16
  keep_buffer 0
  alwayson 1
)
driver
(
  name "cvcam"
  provides ["camera:1"]
)
driver
(
  name "speechcmd"
  provides ["opaque:0"]
  requires ["speech:10"]
  message "blurp"
  alwayson 1
)
