Peter Hutterer efcfd8acc7 Xi: clean up gesture sprite traces in WindowGone
Gesture sprite traces which have the same 'fixed sprite trace
for the duration of the gesture' logic as touch sprite traces.
Both copy WindowPtrs into the trace without refcounting them.

If a device supports gestures but does not have a TouchClass,
the cleanup skipped over the gesture sprite cleanup, leaving
dangling pointers in place if a sprite trace is destroyed
during an active gesture (i.e. window is removed).

DeliverOneGestureEvent() then dereferences the stale pointer via
DeepestSpriteWin(&gi->sprite)->drawable.id, causing a use-after-free.

This vulnerability was discovered by:

ZDI-CAN-32753

                        X server test suite

This suite contains a set of tests to verify the behaviour of functions used
internally to the server.

= How it works =
Through some automake abuse, we link the test programs with the same static
libraries as the Xorg binary. The test suites can then call various functions
and verify their behaviour - without the need to start the server or connect
clients.

This testing only works for functions that do not rely on a particular state
of the X server. Unless the test suite replicates the expected state, which
may be difficult.

= How to run the tests =
Run "make check" in the test directory. This will compile the tests and execute
them in the order specified in the TESTS variable in test/Makefile.am.

Each set of tests related to a subsystem are available as a binary that can be
executed directly. For example, run "xkb" to perform some xkb-related tests.

== Adding a new test ==
When adding a new test, ensure that you add a short description of what the
test does and what the expected outcome is.
