If an application provides its window icon via wmhints, then mutter
loads the pixmap specified by the application into a cairo xlib surface. When
creating the surface it specifies the visual, indirectly, via an XRender
picture format.
This is suboptimal, since XRender picture formats don't have a way to specify
16bpp depth, which an application may be using.
In particular, applications are likely to use 16bpp depth pixmaps for their
icons, if the video card offers a 16bpp framebuffer/root window.
This commit drops the XRender middleman, and just tells cairo a visual to use
directly.

Commit 25f416c13d added additional compilation warnings, including
-Werror=return-type. There are several places where this results
in build failures if `g_assert_not_reached()` is disabled at compile
time and the compiler misses a return value.

The order and way include macros were structured was chaotic, with no
real common thread between files. Try to tidy up the mess with some
common scheme, to make things look less messy.
They are X11 specific functions, used for X11 code. They have been
improved per jadahl's suggestion to use gdk_x11_lookup_xdisplay and
gdk_x11_display_error_trap_* functions, instead of current code.

- Moved xdisplay, name and various atoms from MetaDisplay
- Moved xroot, screen_name, default_depth and default_xvisual
from MetaScreen
- Moved some X11 specific functions from screen.c and display.c
to meta-x11-display.c

Kerbel Space Program, and perhaps some other SDL-based programs, use
a really dumb way of specifying icons, which is totally
non-standards-compliant.
The ICCCM specifies that the icon_pixmap field of WM_HINTS should be a
1-bit-deep Pixmap, but we've seen applications set it to a pixmap of the
root depth as well, so we support that.
Kerbel Space Program seems to use it with a 32-bit depth Pixmap,
signifying ARGB32 (which it is), along with a 1-bit icon_mask, which
crashes us.
Keep in mind that Pixmaps, by definition, have no Visual attached, so
we simply have to make a guess at the correct visual based on the
depth. Do that by assuming that a depth-32 visual always means ARGB32,
which is a pretty safe bet.
This is specifically about managing X11 windows, not necessarily
running as an X11 compositor. By that I mean that this code is
still used for XWayland windows, and event handling is still and
modesetting / monitor management is still in core/.
This is also a fairly conservative move. We don't move anything
like screen.c or bell.c in here, even though those are really
only for X11 clients.
