libdraw: make newwindow() unmount the old window

newwindow() used to mount the new window directly on /dev, resulting
in the old window and the new one being mounted over each other.

we now try to unmount the old window from /dev first, mount new
window to /mnt/wsys (replacing the old) and then bind /mnt/wsys
before /dev.

if theres no /mnt/wsys, just mount window directly before /dev.
