[enhancement] Allow nested mirservers to listen for lifecycle events

[Michael Terry]

./client/mir_toolkit/mir_client_library.h contains:

void mir_connection_set_lifecycle_event_callback(MirConnection* connection,
    mir_lifecycle_event_callback callback, void* context);

But there is no equivalent for nested mirservers. As a result, the mirserver platform-api plugin just doesn't pass such events along. But it should! (If there is already a way to do this, please let me know. Maybe I'm just not familiar enough with Mir.)

So, I'm not sure the best way from an API perspective. There is a HostConnection class could provide its MirConnection, but that actual class definition isn't exposed right now to consumers of the Mir API. Or just add a special call for the server to set a callback.

the problems seems to be getting hold of the MirConnection to call this (and other) APIs

The fix for this was released at 0.6.0.
