lcd4linux: add slots for more user involvement

Keeps gui stuff away from parts of /src/driver and
callbacks with messages should inform the user about possible
operations during activation or deactivation of service.
Reason: long breaks are mediating
freeze or unknown status that leave the user in the dark.
