Add a new command line parameter, -configdir, to specify the config
directory to be used. Rules are the same as -config for root vs. user
privileges.

SpecialKeyHandling was removed from the kbd driver with version 1.4.0. Since
this is the only version that will build against server 1.7+ it's not
reasonable to mention it in the man page. Reword, point to XKB instead and
make clear that some key combinations _may_ not be available in any given
config.

may not include the symbol to trigger it.

As discussed on the mailing list, people would rather have an X command-line
option to print the module path so installers can know where to put modules,
rather than the installers using `pkg-config --variable=moduledir xorg-server`,
since some distros choose not to install xorg-server.pc.
