Consider the following:
- Two threads are calling xcb_wait_for_special_event() and xcb_wait_for_reply()
concurrently.
- The thread doing xcb_wait_for_reply() wins the race and poll()s the socket for
readability.
- The other thread will be put to sleep on the special_event_cond of the special
event (this is done in _xcb_conn_wait() via the argument
xcb_wait_for_special_event() gives it).
- The first thread gets its reply, but does not yet receive any special event.
In this case, the first thread will return to its caller. On its way out, it
will call _xcb_in_wake_up_next_reader(), but that function cannot wake up
anything since so far it did not handle xcb_wait_for_special_event().
Thus, the first thread stays blocked on the condition variable and no thread
tries to read from the socket.
A test case demonstrating this problem is available at the bug report.
Fix this similar to how we handle this with xcb_wait_for_reply():
The function wait_for_reply() adds an entry into a linked list of threads that
wait for a reply. Via this list, _xcb_in_wake_up_next_reader() can wake up this
thread so that it can call _xcb_conn_wait() again and then poll()s the socket.

All functions calling _xcb_conn_wait() must make sure that waiting
readers are woken up when we read a reply or event that they are waiting
for. xcb_wait_for_special_event() did not do so. This adds the missing
call to_xcb_in_wake_up_next_reader().
Fixes deadlock when waiting for a special event and concurrently
processing the display connection queue in another thread.

While XCB uses 64-bit sequence number internally, it only exposes
"unsigned int" so that, on 32-bit architecture, Xlib based applications
may see their sequence number wrap which causes the connection to the X
server to be lost.
Expose 64-bit sequence number from XCB API so that Xlib and others can
use it even on 32-bit environment.
This implies the following API addition:
xcb_send_request64()
xcb_discard_reply64()
xcb_wait_for_reply64()
xcb_poll_for_reply64()

send_request may only write to out.queue if no other thread is busy
writing to the network (as that thread may be writing from out.queue).
send_request may only allocate request sequence numbers if XCB owns
the socket.
Therefore, send_request must make sure that both conditions are true
when it holds iolock, which can only be done by looping until both
conditions are true without having dropped the lock waiting for the
second condition.
We choose to get the socket back from Xlib first as get_socket_back
has a complicated test and checking for other threads writing is a
simple in-lined check.
This also changes the sequence number checks (64k requests with no
reply, 4M request wrapping) to ensure that both conditions are true
before queueing the request.

There are two kind of error connections in XCB. First, if something goes wrong
while the connection is being set up, _xcb_conn_ret_error() is used to return a
static connection in an error state. If something goes wrong later,
_xcb_conn_shutdown() is used to set c->has_error.
This is important, because the static object that _xcb_conn_ret_error() returns
must not be freed, while the dynamically allocated objects that go through
_xcb_conn_shutdown() must obviously be properly deallocated.
This used to work correctly, but in 769acff0da, xcb_disconnect() was made to
ignore all connections in an error state completely. Fix this by only ignoring
the few static error connections that we have.
This was tested with the following hack:
xcb_connection_t *c = xcb_connect(NULL, NULL);
close(xcb_get_file_descriptor(c));
xcb_discard_reply(c, xcb_get_input_focus(c).sequence);
xcb_flush(c);
xcb_disconnect(c);
Valgrind confirms that xcb has a memory leak before this patch that this patch
indeed fixes.

If xcb_connect() fails, it doesn't return NULL. Instead, it always
returns an xcb_connection_t*, and the user should check for errors with
the xcb_connection_has_error() function. What this function does is
check if conn->has_error contains a non-zero error code, and returns it.
If an error did occur, xcb doesn't actually return a full
xcb_connection_t though, it just returns (xcb_connection_t *)
error_code. Since the 'has_error' field is the first, it is still
possible to check conn->has_error.
That last trick was not immediately obvious to me, so add some guiding
comments. This also ensures no one obliviously rearranges the struct.

With the advent of the Present extension, some events (such as
PresentCompleteNotify) now use native 64-bit types on the wire.
For XGE events, we insert an extra "uint32_t full_sequence" field
immediately after the first 32 bytes of data. Normally, this causes
the subsequent fields to be shifted over by 4 bytes, and the structure
to grow in size by 4 bytes. Everything works fine.
However, if event contains 64-bit extended fields, this may result in
the compiler adding an extra 4 bytes of padding so that those fields
remain aligned on 64-bit boundaries. This causes the structure to grow
by 8 bytes, not 4. Unfortunately, XCB doesn't realize this, and
always believes that the length only increased by 4. read_packet()
then fails to malloc enough memory to hold the event, and the event
processing code uses the wrong offsets.
To fix this, mark any event structures containing 64-bit extended
fields with __attribute__((__packed__)).
v2: Use any(...) instead of True in (...), as suggested by
Daniel Martin.
v3 (Alan Coopersmith): Fix build with Solaris Studio 12.3 by moving the
attribute to after the structure definition.

Currently, it is not possible to correctly iterate over the replies of
some requests. For example, the list of XIDeviceInfo returned by
the XIQueryDevice request from xinput2 is read as garbage starting from
the second entry.
The culprits are the _sizeof() used by the iterators. In the above case:
int
xcb_input_xi_device_info_sizeof (const void *_buffer /**< */)
{
char *xcb_tmp = (char *)_buffer;
[...]
unsigned int xcb_block_len = 0;
[...]
xcb_block_len += sizeof(xcb_input_xi_device_info_t);
xcb_tmp += xcb_block_len;
/* name */
xcb_block_len += (((_aux->name_len + 3) / 4) * 4) * sizeof(char);
xcb_tmp += xcb_block_len;
[...]
}
The problem here is that `xcb_block_len` is not zero'd right above the
`/* name */` comment, causing `xcb_tmp` to be incremented by
`sizeof(xcb_input_xi_device_info_t)` twice. The returned size is too
large.
