    Add an explicit method to close kwin · aea488be

    On X Kwin's lifespan used to be managed by XSMP. This accidentally broke
    in 5.20 as we made kwin start before ksmserver for speed purposes and
    wayland preparation.
    
    This leaves kwin to be killed by the display manager as the X connection
    closes, but this can lead to deadlocks.
    
    BUG:428817
    
    On wayland kwin's lifespan is mapped to the lifespan of the ksmserver
    binary. This is problematic as it makes our entire xwayland robustness
    redundant if we ultimately rely on an application that /has/ to run in
    xwayland.
