    Update README to record the death of this utility
    
    *************** THIS PROGRAM IS NO LONGER MAINTAINED BY X.ORG ***************
    
    xsetpointer sets an input device as the core pointer. This dates back to
    when an extension device could not be a core device at the same time and
    is obsolete since server 1.4 (released September 2007).
    The request always fails now (96e32805d12fc36f0fa0926dbfb0dd8a5cadb739).
    
    xinput set-pointer is the equivalent of xsetpointer, but still doesn't
    do anything, this app is truly dead.
