shell.c and tablet-shell.c had almost the same code for forking their
special shell client. Generalise this code and put it into
wlsc_client_launch() in compositor.c.
Improve error cleanup and reporting in wlsc_client_launch().

When compositor enters SLEEPING state, the shell plugin goes locked. If
compositor wakes up itself, it will fade in while the shell may not yet
have a lock surface to show.
Fix this by assigning wake-up to be called from the shell, if the
compositor is SLEEPING. The shell may wait for the lock surface request,
and only then wake up the compositor. The compositor will fade in
directly to the lock screen.

Add protocol and functions for supporting screen locking, triggered by
activity timeout.
After activity timeout, compositor starts the fade to black, and then
enters SLEEPING state. At that point it calls lock() in the shell
plugin.
When input events trigger a wakeup, unlock() in the shell plugin is
called. This sends prepare_lock_surface event to the desktop-shell
client. The screen stays locked while the compositor starts fade-in.
At this point, desktop-shell client usually creates a surface for the
unlocking GUI (e.g. a password prompt), and sends it with the
set_lock_surface request. The compositor supposedly shows and allows
interaction only with the given lock surface (not yet implemented).
When desktop-shell has authenticated the user, or instead of issuing
set_lock_surface, it sends the unlock request. Upon receiving the unlock
request, the shell plugin unlocks the screen.
If desktop-shell client dies, the screen is unlocked automatically.
