Changed the way to test authentication: instead of having a hardcoded config

option, allowByPass, we now have a "Test now" button in the configuration
interface. We add to change both the config app and the libopie2security files
for that, since the MultiauthMainWindow constructor has to know whether to
implement a debug mode (with an new argument, false by default). We also had
to give MultiauthGeneralConfig a link to MultiauthConfig, since the test
button triggers the writing of the whole configuration.
Some cleaning too (m_ on *all* member attributes, removal of obsolete
allowByPass / explanScreens checking code.
