Add the -m|--merge-config command line option to iterate backwards over
XDG Base Dir paths and read config/theme files multiple times.
For example if both ~/.config/labwc/rc.xml and /etc/xdg/labwc/rc.xml
exist, the latter will be read first and then the former (if
--merge-config is enabled).
When $XDG_CONFIG_HOME is defined, make it replace (not augment)
$HOME/.config. Similarly, make $XDG_CONFIG_DIRS replace /etc/xdg when
defined.
XDG Base Dir Spec does not specify whether or not an application (or a
compositor!) should (a) define that only the file under the most important
base directory should be used, or (b) define rules for merging the
information from the different files.

In the case of labwc there is a use-case for both positions, just to be
clear, the default behaviour, described by position (a) above, does NOT
change.
This change affects the following config/theme files:
- rc.xml
- menu.xml
- autostart
- environment
- themerc
- themerc-override
- Theme buttons, for example max.xbm
Instead of caching global config/theme directories, create lists of paths
(e.g. '/home/foo/.config/labwc/rc.xml', '/etc/xdg/labwc/rc.xml', etc).
This creates more common parsing logic and just reversing the direction
of iteration and breaks early if config-merge is not wanted.
Enable better fallback for themes. For example if a particular theme does
not exist in $HOME/.local/share/themes, it will be searched for in
~/.themes/ and so on. This also applies to theme buttons which now
fallback on an individual basis.
Avoid using stat() in most situations and just go straight to fopen().
Fixes#1406
This ensures that those surprised by the deprecation of SUID operation
receive an error rather than accidentally having run as root.

...to the pid of the compositor so that SIGHUP and SIGTERM can be sent to
specific instances using `kill -s <signal> <pid>` rather than
`killall -s <signal> labwc`
Issue #573
This defaults to 1024, which is tiny, but is a requirement
for processes using the deprecated `select` function.
We must reset this back whenever we fork to start a new process,
as this is inherited, and breaks applications using `select` otherwise.
