Fixes for compositor replacement

Browse Source 
* When unmanaging a screen, stop redirecting subwindows explicitly,
  so that we do that before destroying the window manager selection
  window.
* Improve comment in the retry code
* When exiting because the previous compositor couldn't be replaced,
  don't g_error() and drop a core file.
