Xpra: Ticket #2140: Window icon not updating on client

Server (Alpine or CentOS) on r21585 Client (Windows 10) Python or html on r21585

To reproduce the simplest setup is to start a server with --start-child=xterm Login from a client(html or python) and from the created xterm window run xterm to create another xterm window. This new window doesn't have the correct icon. Disconnecting and reconnect xpra causes the icon show correctly.

Also happening from a client on older code so appears to be a server side issue, introduced within the last few months.

From server with "-d icon"

Thanks for reporting that. This was caused by some changes for #2022 / #2090 - looks like I need to revisit that. The fix for the window icon is in r21617: we won't wait more than a second to send it, no matter how high the batch delay value is.

r21617 working as expected, thanks.
