fix/workaround for fullscreen crash in 0.9.24

minor simplification of conditions for not spawning a visual gear - also allows lua to spawn clouds critically or non-critically. We probably shouldn't even exempt clouds from this, and just spawn them once synced, but, eh, probably isn't a significant hit since sheepluva made the motion more efficient.

QT for some reason messes with XCompose causing broken input (Qt 5 only - Qt 4 did not break anything). In Qt 5.2 and 5.3 this was causing an invalid conversion in chat messages containing these resulting in the bad bytes being stripped. In Qt 5.9 it is still broken, but you at least get a string with something in it. This checks for non-zero converted strings for room creation and chat lines.
