[Splashy-devel] Bug#487414: Better patch; no change to theme.xml

At request of the maintainers, I resubmit the patch.
No change to theme.xml
The existing tag 
textbox/enable
 now has a new meaning (or a restored meaning).
If it is "yes", then the textbox starts at boot.
If it is "no", the text box is not started automatically.

Key F2 toggles the text box in both cases.

Reuse of the existing tag forced me to include in this patch a better
fix for the crash-on-F2 bug #473230
 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=473230


Note: F2 stops working about 25% of the way during the boot. After this
point (mounting of the real root filesystem) splashy gets disconnected
from the keyboard so the textbox state can not be changed.

This problem is not related to the patch.
