Whitelisting some XI operations in various hooks.

Note that some additional filtering needs to be done in send or

input data from the root window.

Enrico Weigelt, metux IT consult 2edc4e39fc Xnamespace: add selection isolation
Selection names (as seen by the client) are internally prefixed with the
namespace ID, so each client can only access those within it's namespace.

If a client within namespace "foo" want's to operate on "PRIMARY",
it actually will be doing so on "<foo>PRIMARY", w/o ever noticing it.
Events will sent back to the client still pointing to "PRIMARY".

Enrico Weigelt, metux IT consult 62ae266841 Xi: allow hooks to silently ignore SelectEvents request
When looking up the window to select on and security hook returns
BadAccess, the request is just silently ignored, instead of rejected.

This way, security hook can prevent untrusted clients to listen on
arbitrary windows, without the client even noticing. The client won't
get this BadAccess error, but instead thinking everything's fine,
just not getting the actual events.

Enrico Weigelt, metux IT consult 765c034845 include: list.h: allow zero-initialization of struct xorg_list
Up until now, xorg_list's always need to be explicitly initialized by
calling xorg_list_init(), otherwise next access attempt will segfault.
This is adding extra complexity and risk of subtle bugs.

Adding some extra NULL check are trivial and their cost is so tiny
that it's even hard to practically measure.

Enrico Weigelt, metux IT consult 3c228e9e91 dix: helper for checking whether window ID belongs to a root window
This helper checks whether a given XID belongs to some screen's
root window. It does so by looking up the window and comparing that
with the window's screen's root window pointer. The resource lookup
is intentionally being on behalf of the serverClient, so the fired
XACE hook doesn't treat it as an actual client's request.

It's explicitly designed for being used by callback handlers.

Enrico Weigelt, metux IT consult 16461ea12a dix: add selection filtering hooks
Add hooks for filtering and fully rewrite rewrite selection requests
and events (what existing XACE hooks cannot do), e.g. for supporting
separate selection name spaces.

The hook can change individual fields in the parameter struct, so
operation continues with these changed values (eg. replace the original
selection name atom by a different one). It's also possible to stop
operations completely (with given result code) - in that case the
hook needs to take care of the remaining work to do (eg. sending events)

NVidia yet again doing crazy shit in their proprietary drivers:

This is an DIX-*internal* function for triggering client teardown when

Video drivers have no business with that whatsoever - having them messing

But still trying to be kind with Nvidia victims, thus adding a little wrapper
function under the old name. It spills out a log warning calling users to file
bug reports their driver vendor.
