xcb: Fix access to shm for X server running from another user
Use ShmCreateSegment call, that was added in MIT-SHM 1.2, to create shared memory segments on the server side. It returns a POSIX shared memory object that is used to mmap memory. It's in effect a file descriptor that is passed through the X server socket and thus avoids permission checks. On the other hand this scheme is more secure, because the file descriptor, and thus the shared memory, are accessible only by the X server and the application. Task-number: QTBUG-46017 Change-Id: I202eead9d01aee2ab5b65f4f74f4c13da7cb2239 Reviewed-by: Gatis Paeglis <gatis.paeglis@qt.io>
