Add a workaround for XWarpPointer bug mentioned reported by vikaig (#450)

Problem is that the mouse jumps when users have set a coordinate transformation matrix for their mouse on X11.
XWarpPointer first sets the correct coordinates, but X11 then moves the mouse wrongly to the scaled position on the next mouse event.
On X-Org bugtracker it's this bug: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver/-/issues/600
The fix needs compiling with _IRR_LINUX_X11_XINPUT2_ enabled (so far disabled by default)
Note: We only use XINPUT2 so far for touch-input... I hope this patch won't conflict with that.
Also I mix now IInput2 and X11 functions as getting the mouse-position still uses X11. But seems to work in my tests.

+- Add a workaround for XWarpPointer bug that causes mouse to jump when users have set a Coordinate Transformation Matrix for their mouse on X11.
+  This was mentioned in bug #450 by vikaig.
+  The fix needs compiling with _IRR_LINUX_X11_XINPUT2_ enabled (so far disabled by default)
 - Add IGeometryCreator::createTorusMesh to create donuts.
 - Don't try loading broken image files twice with same loader anymore.
 - Make CImageLoaderJPG thread safe. Thanks @ Edoardo Lolletti for report and patch (patch #324)
