Pull the major release card and switch the semantics of vid_fullscreen

Browse source 
One of the most common bug reports is, that the fullscreen mode doesn't
behave like users expect. This is caused by `vid_fullscreen 1` setting
desktop fullscreen mode (a fullscreen windows) and not the native
fullscreen mode. This commits switches the semantics:

* 1: Native fullscreen, like Vanilla Quake II.
* 2: Desktop fullscreen.

With this alt-tab reverts to native fullscreen. While at it improve the
documentation, suggest setting `r_mode -2` when using `vid_fullscreen
2`. Change the menu strings to make things clearer, set `r_mode -2` when
selecting 'fullscreen window' in the menu.

I pondered several other options:

* Introducing a second cvar for the desktop fullscreen, like we did in
  dhewm3. This has the problem, that in Quake II vi_fullscreen is
  special and used to communicate changed to the renderer configuration
  between the client and renderer. A second fullscreen cvar would
  complicate this already shaky mechanism even more.
* Setting `r_mode -2` when `vid_fullscreen 2`. This might not be what
  the user wants and causes problems when we're unable to get the
  desktop resolution.

apply this to the window in realtime via shaders (on all platforms).
This is also set by the brightness slider in the video menu.
* **vid_fullscreen**: Sets the fullscreen mode. When set to `0` (the
default) the game runs in window mode. When set to `1` the games
switches the display to the requested resolution. That resolution
must be supported by the display, otherwise the game tries several
steps to recover. When set to `2` a fullscreen window is created.
It's recommended to use the displays native resolution with the
fullscreen window, use `r_mode -2` to switch to it.
* **vid_maxfps**: The maximum framerate, if `cl_async` is `1`. Otherwise
`cl_maxfps` is used as maximum framerate. See `cl_async` description
above for more information. *Note* that vsync (`r_vsync`) also
