Hardware cursor issue on nvidia card

Description

This is hrev47114.

I have to disable the hardware cursor option in my ~/config/settings/kernel/drivers/nvidia.settings file since IIRC kallisti enabled the hardware cusor feature a while back.

Problem for new users: there's no nvidia.settings file provided after installing Haiku. So their cursor gets mangled every time an app changes pointer graphics and they have no idea how to fix that.

So, could we either provide the nvidia.settings file (with the option of hardware cusor disabled) or maybe disable hardware cusors completely. I hear it's not really that effective on modern hardware anyway.

I attach my nvidia.settings file. All defaults save the "hardcursor false".
