x11: enable screensaver when paused, rename/change --stop-xscreensaver
Use the recently introduced screensaver VOCTRLs to control the screensaver in the X11 backend. This means the behavior when paused changes: the old code always kept the screensaver disabled, but now the screensaver is reenabled on pausing. Rename the --stop-xscreensaver option to --stop-screensaver and make it more generic. Now it affects all backends that respond to the screensaver VOCTRLs.
