José Expósito 722e464bff test: Xwayland doesn't start when another X server is running
When running the xserver:xwayland / XTS test in an environment where
an X server is running for :0, Xwayland fails to start with error:

    (EE)
    Fatal server error:
    (EE) Server is already active for display 0
        If this server is no longer running, remove /tmp/.X0-lock
        and start again.
    (EE)

And the `timeout` command fails instead of waiting for Weston to
initialize.

Add the `-displayfd` parameter to Xwayland to avoid this issue.

The `-displayfd` parameter lets Xwayland pick an unused display number,
avoiding the start up error when an X server is already active for :0,
the default display number.

                        X server test suite

This suite contains a set of tests to verify the behaviour of functions used
internally to the server.

= How it works =
Through some automake abuse, we link the test programs with the same static
libraries as the Xorg binary. The test suites can then call various functions
and verify their behaviour - without the need to start the server or connect
clients.

This testing only works for functions that do not rely on a particular state
of the X server. Unless the test suite replicates the expected state, which
may be difficult.

= How to run the tests =
Run "make check" in the test directory. This will compile the tests and execute
them in the order specified in the TESTS variable in test/Makefile.am.

Each set of tests related to a subsystem are available as a binary that can be
executed directly. For example, run "xkb" to perform some xkb-related tests.

== Adding a new test ==
When adding a new test, ensure that you add a short description of what the
test does and what the expected outcome is.
