[QUARTZDRV] Preliminary support for native OS X graphics

Not so, quite a few people work on the x11drv. For instance Alexs 
winedesktop work, various NETWM interop patches from me, fullscreening 
windows (not applied yet, but ...), system tray integration and so on. 
Plus all the work to make OpenGL/DirectX go of course! :)

Well the driver model is lifted from Windows so I think it is sound. And 
as for why we use separate drivers, well, when the DLL separation is 
complete it means we can make a real Windows box display via X11 which 
is Just Plain Cool :)

It also allows for portability to operating systems that don't have X11. 
MacOS X *does* have X, in fact it's a modified XFree but with some 
proprietary bits added. So I'm thinking the added effort is not worth 
the gain. I'm not a Mac user though so who knows, maybe the extra 
native-ness is worth all the pain ....
