Stephan Bergmann 9ac86f484b Improvement on previous commit, UCB clean up
* As UCB is only ever initialized with "Local"/"Office", remove this
  configuration vector completely.  The "create" ctor creates an instance
  internally initialized with those "Local"/"Office" keys.  Special (test) code
  can still instantiate an uninitialized one via plain createInstance.  And for
  backwards compatilibity process startup still ensures to create an initialized
  instance early, in case there is still code out there (in extensions) that
  later calls plain createInstance and expects to get the already-initialized
  (single) instance.

* XInitialization is an "implementation detail" of the UniversalContentBroker
  service, do not expose in XUniversalContentBroker.

* ucbhelper/configurationkeys.hxx is no longer needed and is removed.

* ucbhelper/contentbroker.hxx is an empty wrapper and is removed; however, that
  requires ucbhelper::Content constructors to take explicit XComponentContext
  arguments now.

* The only remaining code in ucbhelper/source/client/contentbroker.cxx is
  Android-only InitUCBHelper.  Is that relevant still?

UNO-based graphics backend, lesser impedance to modern graphics APIs
than vcl.

== The Canvas Framework ==

The canvas framework is the successor of the system GUI and graphics
backend VCL. Basic functionality is available, supplying just as much
features as necessary to provide a VCL-equivalent feature set (except
proper BiDi/CTL support).

The canvas framework consists of the following two modules, canvas and
cppcanvas. Additionally, a new generic graphics tooling is used (but
not exclusively by the canvas, Armin's drawinglayer module also make
use of it), which resides in basegfx.

The UNO API used by the canvas is primarily under
com::sun::star::rendering, with com::sun::star::rendering::XCanvas
being the central interface.

== The slideshow engine ==

The slideshow engine has replaced the former Impress-embedded
presentation framework with a fully independent UNO component, and it
is based on the canvas. Some features used there are only available
from canvas, like double-buffering, and hardware-accelerated
alpha-blending (currently not on all platforms).
