Keith Packard b6d7ed4d78 miext: Move SyncShm FDs out of the way of clients
Applications may end up allocating a bunch of shmfence objects, each
of which uses a file descriptor, which must be kept open lest some
other client ask for a copy of it later on.

Lacking an API that can turn a memory mapping back into a file
descriptor, about the best we can do is push the file descriptors out
of the way of other X clients so that we don't run out of the ability
to accept new connections.

This uses fcntl F_GETFD to push the FD up above MAXCLIENTS.

					X Server

The X server accepts requests from client applications to create windows,
which are (normally rectangular) "virtual screens" that the client program
can draw into.

Windows are then composed on the actual screen by the X server
(or by a separate composite manager) as directed by the window manager,
which usually communicates with the user via graphical controls such as buttons
and draggable titlebars and borders.

For a comprehensive overview of X Server and X Window System, consult the
following article:
