[PATCH] Fix num_masks/length overflow test for XiSelectEvents

Have to set windowid to a valid value first, since that check
appears earlier in the code than the masks/length check.

Also have to have data[] set large enough so that reading mask
data for 0xFFFF masks doesn't overflow past the end of the array
into uninitialized data.

Improved version of earlier patch that also addresses the root cause of
why Peter & I saw different results for this test - since we had different
uninitialized data for the masks read past the end of the data[] array.

Also changed to leave the setting of req->win for the next test case,
copying it instead of moving it up, to avoid failure due to the swapl()
of the req->win value during testing.
