server: add wl_global_set_user_data
When implementing a workaround for [1], one needs to accept a global to be bound even though it has become stale. Often, a global's user data is free'd when the global needs to be destroyed. Being able to set the global's user data (e.g. to NULL) can help preventing a use-after-free. (The alternative is to make the compositor responsible for keeping track of stale user data objects via e.g. refcounting.)
