runcommand.sh: launch banner flashed in some emulators

The banner dialog is rendered in some emulators as framebuffer garbage.

It occurs most prominently in amiberry, where it occurs after the emulator has launched just before the whdload screen, sometimes while running one and when it has been quit.

In-game, it's more pronounced in demos that feature several distinct segments. Take PROsiak or Nexus 7 demos for instance. Sometimes the mouse pointer from amiberry is also presented, overlaying the banner garbage.

It seems to be a side effect of not clearing the screen before switching the resolution, which appears to preserve the contents of the framebuffer.
