OLPC XO Opera browser as Sugar activity

[Bert Freudenberg]

The activity start script should configure Opera to put its  
configuration file in $SUGAR_ACTIVITY_ROOT/data instead of  
$HOME/.opera. Also it should set umask to 0002 so the config file is  
group-writable (otherwise the next activity instance cannot overwrite).
