Antoine Martin c95361465e os: Fix -logfile when used with -displayfd
Trivial way to reproduce the bug:

$ Xorg -logfile /tmp/mylog -config /etc/xpra/xorg.conf -displayfd 2

The server then moans:

Failed to rename log file "/tmp/mylog" to "/tmp/mylog": No such file or directory

And the log file is created but immediately renamed to "/tmp/mylog.old".
This is caused by the changes to the log file handling introduced by
this commit:

https://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver/commit/?id=edcb6426f20c3be5dd5f50b76a686754aef2f64e

To fix this, only rename the logfile if the log filename contains the
magic substitution string "%s".

					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:

All questions regarding this software should be directed at the
