extended DeviceN support for OPI

This update includes two new features:
- DeviceN support for printing CMYK raster images with
spot colors. Composite print jobs with OPI references
to raster image files with CMYK colors plus spot colors
require DeviceN output to preserve the spot colors. For
instance, this applies to DCS2, TIFF and Photoshop PSD
files. Now the spot colors are preserved.
- DeviceN support for colorized grayscale images. Composite
print jobs with OPI references to grayscale images which
are colorized both in foreground and background sometimes
require DeviceN output to preserve spot colors, e.g. when
foreground and background are colorized with two different
spot colors. Now grayscale images are converted to DeviceN
based images if necessary to preserve the spot colors.
Both features can be enabled and disabled via EtherShare Admin
for every printer queue. Both features are active if and only
if the "PostScript 3/DeviceN Output" checkbox in the "OPI/ICC
Settings" dialog of the printer queue is checked.
NOTE: Before installing this update, the update installer itself
must be updated with one of the updates u0300-u0306.
