How do I add an automatic reload to my gadget?

This will add a reload icon to the footer of the gadget and an auto-reload option to the config screen:

1. Include the refresh userpref defaulted to false:

   2
   <UserPref name="refresh" datatype="hidden" default_value="false" />

   view: {
     enableReload: true,
     template: ...
   }
