Python Safe Globals now have more reliable triggering of OnChange call. Added "Onchange" object to accessible runtime variables that let user python code see count of changes and first and last values.

    Xenomai 3 (at least for version <= 3.0.6) do not handle properly dlclose

    initialized and call xenomai_init once for all.

    Xenomai auto init of libs MUST be disabled (see --auto-init-solib in xeno-config)
