xserver patch

After xserver commit a32d717ac64b21e15a5736ae4981cdd32f2da56b
applications using XResetScreenSaver() no longer prevent the KDE
screensaver from activating, which uses XScreenSaverQueryInfo() to
detect the idle time and activates after a specified timeout. After this
commit there appears to be no way to detect that XResetScreenSaver() has
been used (the IDLE timer is presumably affected as well).

Testcase: The two attached test apps.
$ g++ -I/usr/include/X11R6 a.cpp -lX11 -o a.out 
$ g++ -I/usr/include/X11R6 b.cpp -lX11 -lXss -o b.out
$ ( sleep 20; ./a.out ) &
$ ./b.out
The time is not reset after 20 seconds even though it should.

Assuming a32d717ac64b21e15a5736ae4981cdd32f2da56b is correct, then I
suggest the attached patch.

    dix: restore lastDeviceEventTime update in dixSaveScreens
    
    This was removed in 6b5978dcf1f7ac3ecc2f22df06f7000f360e2066 (Do not
    reset lastDeviceEventTime when we do dixSaveScreens), but caused a
    regression for XResetScreenSaver.  Add the lastDeviceEventTime update
    back, but restrict it to that case.
