Fixed bug 2260 - SDL_SetCursorGrab() is buggy on Windows

BurnSpamAddress

Steps to reproduce:
1. Grab the cursor with SDL_SetCursorGrab()
2. Alt-tab away from the window
3. Click on the titlebar of the window

This will cause the window to disappear underneath the taskbar!

This appears to be a general issue with ClipCursor() on windows, i.e. I am getting the same behavior if I call ClipCursor() directly.

It is caused by a feedback loop between the ClipCursor function and the modal resize/move event loop that handles mouse-based sizing on Windows.
