libxshmfence had an unfortunate 'int32_t' type for the mapped fence.
That changed to exposing a 'struct shmfence' instead, which is nice
and opaque and offers fine type checking across the API.
This patch requires the newer version of the library and uses
the new interface type.

Applications may end up allocating a bunch of shmfence objects, each
of which uses a file descriptor, which must be kept open lest some
other client ask for a copy of it later on.
Lacking an API that can turn a memory mapping back into a file
descriptor, about the best we can do is push the file descriptors out
of the way of other X clients so that we don't run out of the ability
to accept new connections.
This uses fcntl F_GETFD to push the FD up above MAXCLIENTS.

This provides a place for drivers to insert their own FD-based
SyncFence implementations, and prevents applications from using DRI3
SyncFence creation functions unless the driver has some support for
them.
