Summary: FLTK viewer: restore fullscreen panning behaviour

Initial Comment:
The FLTK viewer, when launched fullscreen on a screen smaller than the server's 
display, adds scrollbars to enable scrolling around the whole display.

The previous behaviour was "panning": scrolling the display in response to the 
mouse hitting an applicable screen edge. I consider the old behaviour 
preferable, because with the scrollbars, one must move the mouse to the right 
screen edge in order to scroll up/down in the display, which means more 
extraneous mouse travel any time one intends to use the mouse in the 
scrolled-to area. Following the cursor is more intuitive as the area the cursor 
is going to gets exposed automatically.

This is especially annoying with a 1024x768 display on a 1024x600 screen, 
because one gets stuck with a horizontal scrollbar purely *because of* the 
presence of the vertical bar.

I'd hope to see the panning behaviour return, at least as an option, since 
without it the usability benefits of fullscreen mode are substantially reduced.
