Jonas Ådahl b002343dca stage/x11: Check that message is WM_PROTOCOLS before assuming so
When a touch sequence was rejected, we'd update the event timestamps of
incoming touch events to help with implementing grabs. This was done by
sending a ClientMessage with a counter, and comparing the counter to
decide whether we're seing a replayed event or not.

This had the unforseen consequence that we would potentially end up
destroying all actors including the stage, since, when mutter receives a
ClientMessage event, it would assume that it's a WM_PROTOCOLS event, and
handle it as such. The problem with this approach is that it would
ignore fact that there might be other ClientMessage types sent to it,
for example the touch synchronization one. What could happen is that the
touch count value would match up with the value of the WM_DELETE_WINDOW
atom, clutter would treat this as WM_PROTOCOLS:WM_DELETE_WINDOW, which
it'd translate to clutter_actor_destroy(stage).

Destroying the stage in such a way is not expected, and caused wierd
crashes in different places depending on what was going on.

This commit make sure we only treat WM_PROTOCOLS client messages as
WM_PROTOCOLS client messages effectively avoiding the issue.

This fixes crashes such as:

Mutter

Mutter is a Wayland display server and X11 window manager and compositor library.

When used as a Wayland display server, it runs on top of KMS and libinput. It implements the compositor side of the Wayland core protocol as well as various protocol extensions. It also has functionality related to running X11 applications using Xwayland.

When used on top of Xorg it acts as a X11 window manager and compositing manager.

It contains functionality related to, among other things, window management, window compositing, focus tracking, workspace management, keybindings and monitor configuration.

Internally it uses a fork of Cogl, a hardware acceleration abstraction library used to simplify usage of OpenGL pipelines, as well as a fork af Clutter, a scene graph and user interface toolkit.

Mutter is used by, for example, GNOME Shell, the GNOME core user interface, and by Gala, elementary OS's window manager. It can also be run standalone, using the command "mutter", but just running plain mutter is only intended for debugging purposes.
