[PATCH xserver 2/2] xwayland: abandon present events when removing CRTC

Xwayland will add and remove CRTCs as Wayland outputs are added or
removed.

If there is a pending flip when this occurs, the
`xwl_present_sync_callback()` will be triggered after the Xwayland
output's RRCtrcPtr has been destroyed, hence causing a crash in Xwayland
while trying to use freed memory:

  #1  abort ()
  #2  OsAbort () at utils.c:1350
  #3  AbortServer () at log.c:877
  #4  FatalError () at log.c:1015
  #5  OsSigHandler () at osinit.c:156
  #6  <signal handler called>
  #7  dixGetPrivate () at ../include/privates.h:122
  #8  dixLookupPrivate () at ../include/privates.h:166
  #9  present_screen_priv () at present_priv.h:198
  #10 present_wnmd_flip () at present_wnmd.c:358
  #11 present_wnmd_execute () at present_wnmd.c:466
  #12 present_wnmd_re_execute () at present_wnmd.c:80
  #13 xwl_present_sync_callback () at xwayland-present.c:287
  #14 ffi_call_unix64 () from /lib64/libffi.so.6
  #15 ffi_call () from /lib64/libffi.so.6
  #16 wl_closure_invoke () at src/connection.c:1006
  #17 dispatch_event () at src/wayland-client.c:1427
  #18 dispatch_queue () at src/wayland-client.c:1573
  #19 wl_display_dispatch_queue_pending () at src/wayland-client.c:1815
  #20 wl_display_dispatch_pending () at src/wayland-client.c:1878
  #21 xwl_read_events () at xwayland.c:814
  #22 ospoll_wait () at ospoll.c:651
  #23 WaitForSomething () at WaitFor.c:208
  #24 Dispatch () at ../include/list.h:220
  #25 dix_main () at main.c:276

To avoid the issue, make sure we call `present_event_abandon()` on the
CRTC we're about to destroy in `xwl_output_remove()`.
