Add additional default properties to control GUI settings

Description

Contribution by Michael Klein (https://github.com/BittyByte):

Added the following new settings in the default.properties file:

HIDE_LOGIN_AS_INVISIBLE
DISABLE_PREFERENCES_MENU_ITEM
MAINT_FILESPEC
DISABLE_PRESENCE_STATUS_CHANGE
DISABLE_BROADCAST_MENU_ITEM
DISABLE_AVATAR_TAB
DISABLE_PLUGINS_MENU_ITEM
DISABLE_FILE_XFER
DISABLE_REMOVALS
DISABLE_RENAMES
DISABLE_MOVE_AND_COPY
DISABLE_EDIT_PROFILE
DISABLE_VIEW_NOTES
DISABLE_VIEW_TASK_LIST

These allow the administrator increased control over the Spark client installation. Comments in the default.properties file describe each setting. The MAINT_FILESPEC feature allows an administrator to override the DISABLE_PREFERENCES_MENU_ITEM setting by specifying the location of a "maintenance file". The "Preferences" menu item can be re-enabled when the specified file exists. It's probably best to place this file on a read/only network share.
