The TCP socket implementation of sesman has a number of limitations,
namely that it is affected by firewalls, and also that determining the
user on the other end requires a full authentication process.
The advantage of the TCP socket is that sesman and xrdp can be run on
separate machines. This is however not supported by the xorgxrdp
backend (shared memory), and is insecure, in that passwords are sent
in-the-clear, and the connection is susceptible to MitM attacks. This
architecture has been deprecated in release notes since xrdp v0.9.17,
and although it will continue to be supported in any further releases
in the x0.9.x series, it will not be supported in the next major
version.

as it is already deprecated. x11rdp is complicated to build and very few
people using it actually. However, some people still select "X11rdp"
session and get stuck despite not installing x11rdp.

People who really want to use x11rdp should revert this commit.
