* Now that vsync off explicitly sets swap interval, it's clear that
we've been using driver defaults (vsync on) up until now.
* Try to enable normal vsync before late swap tearing. The latter
doesn't constrain framerate and looks basically identical to vsync
off.
This change adds an image slideshow screensaver mode with optional
background audio. The existing menu and video screensaver have been
refactored to include this new mode.
By default, the slideshow screensaver will show images from the
game list, but it can be configured in the menu to use a custom
directory instead.
More often than not users are running into glGetErrors 505 (running out
of video memory) when using heavy themes with the default 100 VRAM
setting.
The advice of setting it to 80 is often the solution.
Until we have a proper/better GPU management solution, this is probably
a better default.
