[PATCH] xvinfo "short" mode

Hello,

please find attached a patch to xvinfo that adds the -short commandline option.
The purpose of this option is to display only critical information in a compact manner.

Examples of output:
http://people.freedesktop.org/~ahuillet/xvinfo_orig - normal output
http://people.freedesktop.org/~ahuillet/xvinfo_short - short output

It doesn't break anything (as far as I can tell :p), so it doesn't hurt to apply it.
It is expected to be useful to anyone who wants to have information about his Xv setup (for
example, what attributes are available), without unneeded details.

Note that the manual page was updated as well.
