wayland: Allow Xwayland to leave core dumps

For historical Xorg-reasons, Xwayland would disable its own core dumps by
default. This is a problem because Xwayland crashing is the biggest cause of
gnome-shell crashes [1][2], and we still have no idea why due to there being
no dumps from Xwayland. So enable core dumping from Xwayland.
