Subject: [PATCH] Show and hide mouse cursor based on user input

This is quite simple - whenever the user uses their keyboard or
controller, we hide the mouse cursor. Whenever they move the mouse, we
show it again. This makes it so the cursor gets out of the way when they
play the game, but reappears when they need it.

There is also a timeout, to prevent strobing if the user decides to use
the keyboard/controller and mouse at the same time. There is no timeout
from hiding the mouse cursor, but there is a timeout from showing the
mouse cursor - this because it's okay if the mouse lingers for a few
frames when you start using the keyboard, but really annoying if the
mouse doesn't instantly appear when you move it.
