Xpra: Ticket #884: server idle timeout

similar to idle sessions done in #803: to give us the ability to exit servers that are just sitting there doing nothing.

Done in r9587.

You can test this with:

xpra start --server-idle-timeout=10 -d timeout

If no client connects within 10 seconds - or 10 seconds after the last client disconnects, the server should print this message and exit:

No valid client connections for 1 seconds, exiting the server

You can also tweak the timeout value using:

xpra control :10 server-idle-timeout 20

And see the current value set using:

xpra info | grep server.idle-timeout
