It will be hard to convince all Mozilla plugins-capable browsers to
call XInitThreads() early enough, if it ever happens. In the mean time,
make sure we use only pure XCB and avoid Xlib in VLC plugins.

Note: I did not check that the web plugins itself was not using Xlib
outside the main Mozilla browser thread.

This should fix #3662. We loose GLX and PulseAudio inside Mozilla.
(cherry picked from commit 9886f288)

Certain LibVLC applications fail to call XInitThreads() before they
call XOpenDisplay(). Then VLC calls XInitThreads(). Then the
applications call XCloseDisplay(), which raises a segmentation fault.
In this case, Xlib tries acquire lock that was never created as the
Display ppinter was created before threaded Xlib mode was enabled.

These applications can now pass --no-xlib to libvlc_new(). This will
prevent any VLC Xlib-based plugin from being used. Currently, this
affects interfaces (not really an issue), PulseAudio (until Colin's
patch is merged upstream) and GLX (Xlib-based by design).

This will be necessary to address #3662.

This solves bug ticket #3690, where it was possible to delete the "Playlist" and

Description of the bug:

 This freeze happened only on Windows (tested on XP & Wine), but not on
 Linux. If I only moved up the "killInstance()" line, then the freeze
 would happen only on Linux but not on Windows.
 In these cases the QDialog's destructor never returned.

X11 inherits properties from the parent window by default. XVideo does
not (typically) like ARGB visuals. To create plain RGB window on an ARGB
window, we need to force the color map, background and border parameters
to non-ARGB values.

As the "descriptor" function is called with absolutely no libraries
loaded, even the built-in "require" function is not present at scan
time.
This closes #3453.

Note: this is a bit of a hack, but I prefer not to load any libs when
scanning the available extensions
