Xpra: Ticket #623: consistent and reliable client exit code and information

There can be many reasons why we close a connection. Unless this is simply a network failure which is an error and should be reported as such (and the client process should terminate with a non-zero exit code), we should generally be able to tell the user why the disconnection occurred. Most of the code is already there, it just needs to be constified so these values can be relied on.

See r7075.

Please test, ie:

Some of the other disconnection messages can be a bit harder to trigger, see #614 for example.

Will that do?

As of r7088, the server-side messages are nicer and the client tries to tell the server when it is exiting and why, ie:

client Protocol(SocketConnection(/home/antoine/.xpra/desktop-10)) has requested disconnection: exit on signal SIGINT

client Protocol(SocketConnection(/home/antoine/.xpra/desktop-10)) has requested disconnection: client exit
