Details:

The fix for bug #24350 doesn't completely solve the problem with the terminal
title being set in WeeChat 0.3.0. When weechat.look.set_title=off, the title
is still changed, although not to "weechat 0.3.0" as happens when
weechat.look.set_title=on.

I get different results from two different terminals and launch methods when
weechat.look.set_title=off:

1. Under plain xterm, simply launching `weechat-curses` changes the default
title from "xterm" to "Terminal".

2. Under a GNU Screen session running inside Konsole, launching `:screen -t
weechat 1 su -l -c weechat-curses myusername` overrides the terminal title
being set by screen's "-t" option (i.e. "weechat"), and the title is instead
set to screen's default title ("bash") as if the "-t" option had not even been
specified. This doesn't happen with WeeChat 0.2.6.3 and earlier -- the title
is correctly set to what I specified ("weechat").

Both of these behaviors are undesirable. When weechat.look.set_title=off,
WeeChat should not touch the terminal title at all, not even to "reset" it to
some value it thinks is a default.
