Olivier Fourdan d206c240c0 configurable maximum number of clients 
Make the maximum number of clients user configurable, either from the command
line or from xorg.conf

This patch works by using the MAXCLIENTS (raised to 512) as the maximum
allowed number of clients, but allowing the actual limit to be set by the
user to a lower value (keeping the default of 256).

There is a limit size of 29 bits to be used to store both the client ID and
the X resources ID, so by reducing the number of clients allowed to connect to
the X server, the user can increase the number of X resources per client or
vice-versa.

Parts of this patch are based on a similar patch from Adam Jackson
<ajax@redhat.com>

This now requires at least xproto 7.0.28

					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:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X_server

All questions regarding this software should be directed at the
Xorg mailing list:

Please submit bug reports to the Xorg bugzilla:
