Merge lp:~laney/upstart/xsession-sessiontype into lp:ubuntu/raring/upstart

[Iain Lane]

Currently the gnome-session user job's start on condition is

  start on xsession SESSION=ubuntu

which seems overly specific. That job can work for any gnome-session.

While the Xsession.d scripts are being processed, there is a $BASESTARTUP variable set in 55gnome-session_gnomerc that we can use to determine which session manager is being used. Currently we only look for gnome-session but others could extend this if they wish.

If accepted, I'll modify gnome-session's job accordingly.
