Yamagi f1b6b82721 Pull the major release card and switch the semantics of vid_fullscreen
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.
