Avoid accidental yanking of text while scrolling with
the mouse wheel.  This adds a short period after each mouse wheel
scroll event where a click on the mouse wheel button is ignored.

(mouse-wheel-click-event, mouse-wheel-inhibit-click-time): New customs.
(mouse-wheel-click-button, mwheel-inhibit-click-event-timer): New vars.
(mwheel-inhibit-click-timeout,mwheel-filter-click-events): New defuns.
(mwheel-scroll): Add mwheel-filter-click-events as pre-command-hook.
Start mwheel-inhibit-click-event-timer with timeout handler
mwheel-inhibit-click-timeout.
