stage/x11: Check that message is WM_PROTOCOLS before assuming so
When a touch sequence was rejected, we'd update the event timestamps of
incoming touch events to help with implementing grabs. This was done by
sending a ClientMessage with a counter, and comparing the counter to
decide whether we're seing a replayed event or not.
This had the unforseen consequence that we would potentially end up
destroying all actors including the stage, since, when mutter receives a
ClientMessage event, it would assume that it's a WM_PROTOCOLS event, and
handle it as such. The problem with this approach is that it would
ignore fact that there might be other ClientMessage types sent to it,
for example the touch synchronization one. What could happen is that the
touch count value would match up with the value of the WM_DELETE_WINDOW
atom, clutter would treat this as WM_PROTOCOLS:WM_DELETE_WINDOW, which
it'd translate to clutter_actor_destroy(stage).
Destroying the stage in such a way is not expected, and caused wierd
crashes in different places depending on what was going on.
This commit make sure we only treat WM_PROTOCOLS client messages as
WM_PROTOCOLS client messages effectively avoiding the issue.
This fixes crashes such as:

It was removed in 3.34 as part of 6ed5d2e2. And we thought that was the
only thread that might exist and use X11. But the top gnome-shell crasher
in 3.36 seems to suggest otherwise.
We don't know what or where the offending thread is, but since:
1. We used XInitThreads for years already prior to 3.34; and
2. Extensions or any change to mutter/gnome-shell could conceivably use
threads to make X calls, directly or indirectly,
it's probably a good idea to reintroduce XInitThreads. The failing assertion
in libx11 is also accompanied by a strong hint:
```
fprintf(stderr, "[xcb] Most likely this is a multi-threaded client " \ "and XInitThreads has not been called\n");
```

wayland: preserve `xkb_state` on VT switch
On VT switch, the devices are removed, which means for Wayland disabling
the keyboard.
When the keyboard is disabled, the associated `xkb_state` is freed and
recreated whenever the keyboard is re-enabled when switching back to the
compositor VT.
That means the `xkb_state` for Wayland is lost whereas the same for
clutter is kept, which causes to a discrepancy with locked modifiers on
VT switch.
To avoid that issue, preserve the XKB info only to dispose it when the
keyboard is eventually finalized.

keybindings: Mask out the reserved modifiers mask
When switching layouts, special modifiers bits may be be set for
internal use by Xkb.
As we now ignore a set of modifiers when processing the special
modifiers keys, we ought to also mask out those reserved modifiers
otherwise we would discard the [Super] key after switching layouts
in X11.
keybindings: Check the special modifiers specifically
Make sure it is only the special modifier (hardcoded to 1 currently)
which is being pressed (not counting locked modifiers) before notifying
that the special modifier is pressed, as we are interested in it being
pressed alone and not in combination with other modifier keys.
This helps in two ways:
- Pressing alt, then ctrl, then releasing both won't trigger the locate
pointer action.
- Pressing alt, then ctrl, then down/up to switch workspace won't interpret
the last up/down keypress as an additional key on top of the special ctrl
modifier, thus won't be forwarded down to the focused client in the last
second.
