Aaron Plattner 7f5cfcc2fd xcb_disconnect: call shutdown() to force a disconnect 
Fixes the X Test Suite's XCloseDisplay-6 test, which has this (admittedly
ridiculous) behavior:

 1. Create a window w.
 2. Open two display connections, dpy1, and dpy2.
 3. Grab the server using dpy1.
 4. Fork.
 5 (child). XSetProperty on w using dpy2.
 5 (parent). Verify that no event was recieved on dpy1.
 6 (parent). XCloseDisplay(dpy1).
 6 (child). Verify that an event was received on dpy2.

It was failing because at step 6 (child), the server had not actually ungrabbed
yet because the file descriptor for dpy1 was still open in the child process.

Shutting down the socket during XCloseDisplay matches the behavior of non-XCB
Xlib, which calls shutdown() from _X11TransSocketDisconnect.

Thanks to Julien Cristau for noticing this.

About libxcb
============

libxcb provides an interface to the X Window System protocol, which
replaces the current Xlib interface. It has several advantages over
Xlib, including:
- size: small, simple library, and lower memory footprint
- latency hiding: batch several requests and wait for the replies later
- direct protocol access: interface and protocol correspond exactly
- proven thread support: transparently access XCB from multiple threads
- easy extension implementation: interfaces auto-generated from XML-XCB

Xlib can also use XCB as a transport layer, allowing software to make
requests and receive responses with both, which eases porting to XCB.
However, client programs, libraries, and toolkits will gain the most
benefit from a native XCB port.


Please report any issues you find to the freedesktop.org bug tracker,
at:

	<https://bugs.freedesktop.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=XCB>

Discussion about XCB occurs on the XCB mailing list:

        <mailto:xcb at lists.freedesktop.org>

You can obtain the latest development versions of XCB using GIT.
