FS#539 - Consolidate CW-01 and DNP backends

There's a great deal of overlap; the main difference is the format of the print job. It may make sense to fold the CW-01 stuff into the DNP backend (including the spool format), but alternatively perhaps just a shared library?

It's now possible to start combining them.   There's under 800 lines of code to port.  If we make a clean break and re-use the generic Citizen/DNP spool format, then it makes more sense to just add cw-01 support into the current dnp/citizen backend. 

This is risky enough that I don't care to undertake this effort without access to a printer.

Progress continues; I've achieved a 59% reduction in unique cw-01 code; all that's left is the parser and main loop.

I need to write a converter from old spool format to the "native" format, then I can adapt the main loop.

Code's done, and committed. Just needs testing. Once it's working, then Gutenprint can get "native" CW-01 generation path ala other Citizen models.

Everything is done, just needs testing.
