Possible fix for bug #778060

Description

This patch seems to fix bug #778060 ("DOTT: Subtitle drawing glitch").

The problem is that when the game is showing the room with Laverne's Chron-O-John virtscr[0].xstart is displayed, and it isn't properly re-initialized until after Bernard's text message has been displayed.

The scripts make use of a temporary savegame to get back to Bernard's room, so if I change loadState() to call cameraMoved() for all games, and not just for GF_NEW_CAMERA games as is currently the case, then it works.

I think this is a safe change to make, but I'm not sure enough to commit it without a second opinion, because I don't know why it was restricted to only some games to begin with.

I don't see how it could cause problems either, but that's doesn't mean a bit :-)

Best approach might be once again to compare this with disassembly... or just apply it to the trunk, and we'll wait for the regression reports to arrive :-)
