powerapplet_tray updated to version 2.7

powerapplet_tray is a battery status monitor in the system tray. Variants of it are in most of the pups, including Quirky and EasyOS. Looking at the source of the one used in Easy, it seems that I wrote it, with input from Puppy Forum member 'rodin.s'. I seem to recall '01micko' having input at some stage, though maybe that was a different battery monitor applet.

Anyway, the one used in Easy has some issues, and Forum member 'rooftop' (identified as 'NC' in the C code comments) has made some improvements:
