Work around crashes in X session management after normal shutdown of X server.
* src/xsmfns.c (x_session_close): New function.
* src/xterm.h: Declare it.
* src/xterm.c (XTread_socket): Don't call x_session_check_input for
secondary displays.
(x_term_init): Do not initialize X session management when the initial
display was a tty frame.
(x_delete_display): Close X session management when we close its display.
