DataSoft/Nova — Issue #72: Allow multiple concurrent UIs

Currently, we use exactly two hardcoded files to handle IPC. The first (Novad_Listen) is unavoidable. But the second (UI_Listen) is not.

What should happen is that Novad listens on Novad_Listen. Then when we get a request to connect, the client spawns a new IPC file and listens on it, then tells Novad where it is. Novad then connects out to it.

This will allow two simultaneous UIs to run on one Novad instance.
