[O] [PATCH] Introduce a new variable for x11idle

[Yasushi SHOJI]

Debian and other OSes already have a program called 'xprintidle',
which does the same thing as x11idle. It also handles the DPMS bug[1]
some version of X servers have.

In order to use an alternative, introduce a customizable variable
'org-clock-x11idle-program-name' to hold the actual command name.
