Summary: Fix for missing default connection profiles in 2.0b1

Initial Comment:
OK. First 2.0b1 crashed on launching. I erased the prefs of 1.3.6 
and 2.0b1 started launching, but nothing could be made with 
profiles, and CotVNC didn't select an encoding when connecting to 
a server. I opened 1.3.6 again, created a profile, closed 1.3.6, 
opened 2.0b1, and now profiles and encodings work again. There's 
whole sections of the .plist preference file that 2.0b1 doesn't create  
correctly. Add the following to the file ~/Library/Preferences/
com.geekspiff.chickenofthevnc.plist :

	<key>ConnectProfiles</key>
	<dict>
		<key>default</key>
		<dict>
			<key>E3BTimeout</key>
			<string>50</string>
			<key>EnableCopyRect</key>
			<string>1</string>
			<key>EnabledEncodings</key>
			<string>255</string>
			<key>Encodings</key>
			<array>
				<string>0</string>
				<string>1</string>
				<string>2</string>
				<string>3</string>
				<string>4</string>
				<string>5</string>
				<string>6</string>
				<string>7</string>
			</array>
			<key>NewAltKey</key>
			<integer>1</integer>
			<key>NewCommandKey</key>
			<integer>0</integer>
			<key>NewControlKey</key>
			<integer>2</integer>
			<key>NewShiftKey</key>
			<integer>3</integer>
			<key>PixelFormat</key>
			<string>1</string>
		</dict>
	</dict>

After this, profiles, encodings and CotVNC should start working.

Okay, here's a not-easy work-around for this issue:

 - Delete your preferences (<home
directory>/Library/Preferences/
com.geekspiff.chickenofthevnc.plist)
 - Launch Chicken 1.3.6
 - From the Edit menu, choose Profiles
 - Type the name of a new profile
 - Press the New button
 - Press the Delete button
 - Quit Chicken
 - Launch Chicken 2.0b1 and use normally.

Good suggestions.  This is my recommended work-around for this issue 
until we've got a fix in place.  Thanks!
