2.7.1, option FULL_SCREEN is superseded by WINDOW_MODE!

What is new

• Support for new qiosk --window-mode parameter that replaces --fullscreen, this adds new chromium-kiosk configuration option WINDOW_MODE where options are:
  • hidden - Window is not visible
  • automaticvisibility - Auto by DE
  • windowed - Normal window
  • minimized - Minimized window
  • maximized - maximized window
  • fullscreen - fullscreen ( same as old FULL_SCREEN: true)

By this change config option FULL_SCREEN is deprecated and should be replaced with WINDOW_MODE: 'fullscreen', FULL_SCREEN option is still working as expected (internally it sets WINDOW_MODE = 'fullscreen') but it will be removed in some future release.
