doc: consistently indent the xml files by 2 spaces

2 spaces is enough for xml, otherwise we end up with too little room for the
actual text.

In Linux and other Unix-like systems, the X stack has grown to
encompass functionality arguably belonging in client libraries,
helper libraries, or the host operating system kernel. Support for
things like PCI resource management, display configuration management,
direct rendering, and memory management has been integrated into the X
stack, imposing limitations like limited support for standalone
applications, duplication in other projects (e.g. the Linux fb layer
or the DirectFB project), and high levels of complexity for systems
combining multiple elements (for example radeon memory map handling
between the fb driver and X driver, or VT switching).

Moreover, X has grown to incorporate modern features like offscreen
rendering and scene composition, but subject to the limitations of the
X architecture. For example, the X implementation of composition adds
additional context switches and makes things like input redirection
difficult.

Over time, X developers came to understand the shortcomings of this
approach and worked to split things up. Over the past several years,
a lot of functionality has moved out of the X server and into
client-side libraries or kernel drivers. One of the first components
to move out was font rendering, with freetype and fontconfig providing
an alternative to the core X fonts. Direct rendering OpenGL as a
graphics driver in a client side library went through some iterations,
ending up as DRI2, which abstracted most of the direct rendering
buffer management from client code. Then cairo came along and provided
a modern 2D rendering library independent of X, and compositing
managers took over control of the rendering of the desktop as toolkits
like GTK+ and Qt moved away from using X APIs for rendering. Recently,
memory and display management have moved to the Linux kernel, further
reducing the scope of X and its driver stack. The end result is a
highly modular graphics stack.
