We don't have a standard protocol for enabling VRR yet, but some time ago an
ad-hoc had been made in the amdgpu driver (later also copied to modsetting),
which works by client setting the _VARIABLE_REFRESH window property.
The way it's currently done - driver is highjacking the X_ChangeProperty and
X_DeleteProperty request handlers - is pretty fragile, and is also a violation
of layers: drivers never should be twisted with core protocol details. (And in
the future, this should be done by some suitable extension).
Another problem is Xinerama: when it's enabled, this only works on the first
screen - the others won't ever see this signal, no matter on which one(s) the
Window is physically placed (for the wire protocol, all windows are on screen 0,
unless the client explicitly creates them on another one)
This commit adds a generic Screen proc for telling the DDX, whether the VRR mode
shall be changed (for now, it's only DISABLED and ENABLED). Drivers can hook into
here in order to receive this signal, w/o having to highjack any core request
handlers. Catching the property change is now entirely done in the DIX.
The (non-standard) status qou of (ab)using window properties is kept, but it's
now also easy to add a new signaling mechanism, in case a standard is agreed on.
Yet a quite naive implementation (eg. not acting on moving windows between screens),
but enough to fix the most pressing problems supporting extra screens in general,
as well as stopping the highjacking of core request handlers by drivers.

Instead of having the request handler ask for fd's one by one, just read them
all into a little array in ClientRec struct. And also automatically clean up
after request had been handled.
Request handlers need to set the entries to -1 if they shouldn't be closed
automatically.

This macro doesn't do anything more than just making the function declarations
a few bytes smaller, but this makes the code harder to read (eg. when just
grepping through the code base).

The request struct's length fields aren't used anymore - we have the
client->req_len field instead, which also is bigreq-compatible.
Also dropping now obsolete SProcNoOperation().

The xnfreallocarray was added along (and just as an alias to) XNFreallocarray
back a decade ago. It's just used in a few places and it's only saves us from
passing the first parameter (NULL), so the actual benefit isn't really huge.
No (known) driver is using it, so the macro can be dropped entirely.

Several places using _X_ATTRIBUTE_PRINTF macro from X11/Xfuncproto.h
but missing to include it, so it depends on other headers whether it's
included by mere accident, which quickly causes trouble if include order
changes. Cleaning that up by adding explicit include statements.

The comment about ClientPtr also being defined in misc.h is outdated
for about 20 years now: XFree86 4.3.0.1 dropped the redundant definition
over there.
It's still also in Xdefs.h, so the guard is still needed.

This header isn't public and holds defines for code in os/ directory,
so no need to keep it in the global header dir - it's probably better
off in os/ directory - just like we already have with many others.

Since this define is only used inside os subdir, move the definition there
and out of the global config header. This also makes some further steps,
e.g. checking whether it's supported, a litle bit easier.

Windows' native headers using some our RT_* define's names for other things.
Since the naming isn't very nice anyways, introducing some new ones
(X11_RESTYPE_NONE, X11_RESTYPE_FONT, X11_RESTYPE_CURSOR) and define the old
ones as an alias to them, in case some out-of-tree code still uses them.
With thins change, we don't need to be so extremely careful about include
ordering and have explicit #undef's in order to prevent name clashes on
Win32 targets.
