It is a higher level wrapper for show_mouse(NULL), that only hides the
mouse if that is really required, ie. if the mouse is visible, and you
don't have a hardware cursor. It also maintains a state stack, so that
unscare_mouse() can put things back to the way they were at the end
of your drawing code.
