[PATCH randrproto] Be more specific about property types

RandR output properties are X properties, which have a type atom, a
"format" (i.e. and element size) and a number of items. Be explicit
about these fields when describing properties in the protocol
document. E.g., instead of specifying "int32 [2 * n] / Atom pairs,"
say "Type: INTEGER / Format: 32 / Num. items: 2*n."

Hopefully this will make it clearer how to implement and use these
properties.
