Setup Menu

This allows the user to select an appropriate work/break duration.

The Demonstration mode is preset to a 30 second work period followed by a 60 second break,
to demonstrate the functionality of blink!

The user may also toggle ON/OFF the following components:

		Break Start Sound
		Break End Sound
		Always on Top
		Menu Sounds
		Show/hide blink! on startup

Selecting Always on Top (default) ensures blink! is displayed on top of other applications
whenever a break commences.
