Change screensaver_freedesktop's interpretation of GetActive

The freedesktop screensaver D-Bus API method GetActive seems to return boolean
to indicate whether the screensaver is active ("saving" the screen), not
whether the screensaver program is enabled.  Therefore, the attached patch
changes the interpretation of the response to GetActive such that a successful
response (either true or false) indicates the screensaver program is enabled
(even if not active) and a successful response that does not specify true or
false indicates that the screensaver program is disabled.
