Public bug reported:

I'm just adding this bug since there seem to be a few inconsistencies or
issues regarding starting up OpenLP and how the MainDisplay is displayed
on a _single_ monitor system. For the purposes of this bug, I'm ignoring
the "Override" setting.

For example on Windows, I never get the MainDisplay shown, even if I go
live on a song and the display is not set to blank. It will only display
once I've clicked the blank screen button. The "Display if a single
screen" appears to make no difference in this.

On Linux I've noticed that I always seem to get the MainDisplay window
appearing, even at startup. The Esc bug makes it difficult to
investigate further, although Wesley states that the "Display if a
single screen" button does work for him. Now this might just be me. Note
that if the "Display if a single screen" setting affects this, we need
to ensure the default is the most friendliest for the first time user.

It might already be the intent of the code, and on Windows it appears to
be the case, but I don't think the MainDisplay initial logo screen
should ever be displayed at startup if it happens to be on the same
monitor as the application window.
