New ParamegerMgr "Full" connector

This is a new connector that implements (almost) all of the parameter-framework
capabilities, in contrast to CParameterMgrPlatformConnector which only
implements criteria creation, modification, and application and dynamic
parameter handling capabilities.

It will allow user to programatically do whatever the PFW can do, e.g. create
domains and configurations.
