Fixes #701 & includes #704 (assumes #704 will be merged)

Our church exports PowerPoints to PDFs, which are then added to the order of schedule of Quelea. It sometimes occurs that we still have the PowerPoint window open to make adjustments, but when the loop button is pressed when a PDF is Live the PowerPoint window also seems to start a slideshow on top of Quelea's Projection Window.

We discovered today that it also happens when turning off a PDF loop (only starts PPT presentation), so it should probably include the off state as well in the click event.
