Patch to add lock button to 1.1.0

The time left dialog would be much more useful with a lock button.  During the
break if I want to leave the computer, sometimes it would be useful to be able
to lock the screen so a password is required to get back on the computer.

The attached patch implements this feature by adding a lock button that will
run xflock4 when it is pressed.

Possible things to fix with patch before merging:
1. Put Lock button horizontally with Postpone button instead of vertically.
2. Resume locking screen instead of exiting if xflock4 fails.

Let me know if there is anything you would like me to do to improve this patch.

Thanks.

Joshua Cogliati
