GnomeBG should give up the fade effect if it's too slow

Description
The recently added cross-fade support also fades in the initial background from nothing. This is happening at an extremely busy time for the desktop (login), when the window manager itself may not even be up to speed.
In the cases of compositing window managers, it pretty much kills the login performance.
Additionally while cute, with KMS we can do much better "fade in the entire desktop" kinds of things
