[cooja] plugins/Visualizer: Multi-mote selection functionality

This adds multi-mote selection capabilities to the visualizer plugin:

- [Ctrl + Mouse Drag]: Rectangular selection of multiple motes
- [Ctrl + Mouse Click]: Add/Remove motes from current selection
- Mouse Drag on any selected Mote: Move all currently selected motes

Note: This changes previous behaviour of using Ctrl key.
