Expanded function of volume script

Previously the volume was changed manually with 'amixer' and then 'gvol' ("get
volume") was called to display the updated value, by again calling amixer.
These two calls are unnecessary as the same output is given each time. Thus the
whole process has been integrated into 'gvol', which can now set the volume as
well as displaying it.
