Andrew Eikum 78e508c937 dix: Clear any existing selections before initializing privates 
If there is a selection left over from a previous execution of the
main loop, and that selection has privates allocated for it, the X
server will crash. This is because dixResetPrivates() resets the
privates refcounts to zero without accounting for the reference held
by the selection object. When the selection is then deleted in
InitSelections() after the call to dixResetPrivates(), the refcount
for its privates type goes negative and bad things happen.

To fix this, we should delete any existing selections before calling
dixResetPrivates(). This will properly release the selection's
privates and avoid the crash.

A more thorough description of the problem and a test case to
reproduce the crash is available at a previous mail:
  "Negative Selection devPrivates refcount?"

					X Server

The X server accepts requests from client applications to create windows,
which are (normally rectangular) "virtual screens" that the client program
can draw into.

Windows are then composed on the actual screen by the X server
(or by a separate composite manager) as directed by the window manager,
which usually communicates with the user via graphical controls such as buttons
and draggable titlebars and borders.

For a comprehensive overview of X Server and X Window System, consult the
following article:
