[PATCH xinit 1/2] startx: Fix startx picking an already used display number when -nolock is used

Currently startx relies on /tmp/.X?-lock being present for automatically
picking a free display number. This does not work if -nolock is used when
starting the server, or if the server is started with -displayfd as -displayfd
implies -nolock.
This is becoming a problem now that -displayfd is getting used by
display-managers (e.g. gdm), this fixes this by also checking for
/tmp/.X11-unix/X?
