    sdl: Do not disable screensaver by default
    
    Unless we are running in full-screen mode, QEMU's SDL window should not
    disable the host's screensaver. The user can still change this behaviour
    by setting the environment variable SDL_VIDEO_ALLOW_SCREENSAVER as
    desired.

Bug description:
lucid, with compiz and fglrx:

Screensaver on host will not kick in when qemu is running (kvm or no kvm). It 
seems to be related to the fact that the idle time reported by libXss.so on the 
host is being reset every four seconds or so when qemu is running, eventhough 
there is no activity on either guest or host.
