Implement -monoMouse option (XB)

With the monoMouse option button-3 is no longer needed in Edit-Position
mode, but a button-1 click on an empty square will automatically behave
as if it was button 3. It can only be used with -pieceMenu false,
as it does not communicate the coordinates of the clicked square.
