It seems that the clipboard thread restart mechanism has been broken for a
while, which can be demonstrated using XDMCP with KDM (e.g. to a Kubutunu 12.04
host)
KDM kills all attached clients, including the clipboard integration client,
which restarts, but then exits on WM_QUIT.
Using PostQuitMessage() in WM_DESTROY is unhelpful, as we may not actually be
quitting the thread, if we just destroyed the window because the clipboard
thread is about to retry, because he WM_QUIT message sticks around, and is
noticed the next time we look at the window message queue and confuses us into
thinking we need to quit.
Sending a WM_DESTROY is apparently never correct anyhow, see [1]
So:
1/ Use DestroyWindow() to destroy the clipboard messaging window when cleaning
up for retry or exit in winClipboardProc (the clipboard thread main proc)
2/ Send a special WM_WM_QUIT message in winClipboardWindowDestroy() from the X
server thread when the X server is resetting.
3/ When processing that WM_WM_QUIT message in the clipboard thread, cause the
clipboard window to PostQuitMessage(), which causes the clipboard thread to
exit.
