[PATCH] xwininfo: do not segfault on IO error

If the connection to the X server is lost while waiting for
the user to select a window interactively, xwininfo segfaults.
This is a regression introduced with the port to XCB, because
xcb_wait_for_event() can return NULL in case of an IO error and
xwininfo does not check for the actual returned value.
