[ubuntu-art] hardy artwork

[Jonathan Motes]

I really like the Fela Kuti wallpaper. I think it would be wonderful for
Hardy, especially if it were also integrated with the GDM and splash.
Additionally, it would help bring in the black colors (I haven't seen much
black yet) for the proposed orange and black color scheme.
