    Fix region display while dragging mouse
    
    * lisp/mouse.el (mouse-drag-track): Reset deactivate-mark in the
    buffer of the drag event, to allow mark to be set and the region
    be shown as we drag the mouse.  (Bug#24030)
    
    This was backported from master
    (cherry picked from commit 7d58b02f363ab02961faa950d1ba727df96f2f19)
