Bug Description

Implement a mechanism so that:

1) u1cp checks every X hours if there is a new version
2) if there is one, offer to download it
3) give the user a way to opt out temporarily or permanently from this check

I put this on u1cp because we will have it running all the time and with an icon on the system notification area.

We have this implemented on windows-installer but I still think control panel is a better place for it. For instance, it would allow
it to be run periodically instead of only on startup.

And we can restart u1cp from there.
