Now that we apply a strong blur effect to the background, it doesn't make too much sense to use a separate lock-screen background: It will be mostly unrecognizable anyway. The alternative would be to turn off the blur effect if a different background is used (or have a hidden setting for that), but that would then imply that we must keep the contents readable without blur. Let's avoid that rabbit hole and just re-use the regular background. https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/merge_requests/1001
