Disable the auto-away gui controls if the XScreenSaver support was not compiled in

Description

If the XScreenSaver extension is not found, the GUI options for the "auto-away" settings should be grayed out. This way the user knows that feature is there, but doesn't work for them.

Right now we falsely advertise that feature works, leading to confusion.

wow that was quick. :)

I'd like to backport this feature as well to 1.5.2, so leaving the ticket open for a moment.

(p.s. I think the what-is-this tip "If this option is not available, KMess was built without support for this feature" doesn't have to be added. It doesn't really tell much, I rather have people asking a question at the forum ;) I like to know how many distro's will break this feature)

I've made an additional fix in r3525, and backported to 1.5.2 with r3529.
