With libX11, the library calls an I/O error handler if the connection to
the server breaks. The default I/O error handler prints an error message
and calls exit(). This can be seen when running a "pre-xcb" compton
against Xephyr and then closing the Xephyr window:
XIO: fatal IO error 11 (Resource temporarily unavailable) on X server ":1"
after 241 requests (241 known processed) with 0 events remaining.
The current compton would just continue running. After this commit, it
instead exits with this message:
handle_queued_x_events(): X11 server connection broke (error 1)

Xlib uses unsigned long for XIDs, but xcb always uses uint32_t. Thus,
this needs the format string for uint32_t now.

The existing mechanism with set_ignore_next() is (IMHO) ugly and also
does not work with XCB requests. This commit adds a new function
set_ignore_cookie() and fixes callers that were converted to XCB to use
this new function instead.

Errors for requests sent via Xlib that expect a reply are handled via
XSetErrorHandler(), which sets up a callback function that Xlib calls.
Errors for requests that do not expect a reply or for errors caused via
unchecked XCB requests show up as events of type 0 in the event handling
function.
Before this commit, errors were ignored here. This commit changes the
code so that the errors are printed instead.

Note that this adds an include for Xfixes.h, because that header is
still needed and was previously included through Xcomposite.h.

The X11 server's answer is not \0-terminated, so xcb_str_name() also
does not provide a \0-terminated pointer.

No functional changes intended. The new xcb_damage_query_version() was
previously done by XDamageQueryExtension() internally.

Before becoming the selection owner for _NET_WM_CM_Sn, compton will now check if
that selection is already owned (which means that another composite manager is
already running). If this check fails, startup will be refused. This behaviour
is required by EWMH / ICCCM.
Because this should catch all composite managers, the error message that was
used before when another manager is already running is reworded to mention that
the other manager does not follow EWMH.
