There is no need to unset WAYLAND_DISPLAY and WAYLAND_SOCKET when screen-share
launches the fullscreen shell server. This was done originally in case the
launched server decided to use the wayland backend based on the presence of
these. However, we pass a command line argument telling it to use the RDP
backend, which overrides the automatic backend selection based on the
environment.
Keeping these environment variables allows the launched fullscreen shell server
to know the original server's display name, which it may need in order to show
a configuration UI.

This adds a plugin called screen-share.so. If the screen-share.so module
is imported, it will add the CTRL+ALT+s keybinding to start a screen
sharing session. If you press CTRL+ALT+S, weston will spawn another copy
of weston, this time with the RDP backend, and mirrors the current screen
to it and adds any seats from RDP as aditional seats. The current screen
is defined as the one with the mouse pointer. Currently the CTRL+ALT+s
keybinding is hardcoded as the only way to activate screen sharing. If, at
some point, shells want more control over the screen sharing process, the
API's should be easy to update and export to make this possible.
For security, the command and path to weston is currently hard-coded. It
would not take much aditional code to make this configurable or to allow a
shell to launch other screen-sharing programs. However, handling those
security issues is outside the scope of this patch so it is hard-coded for
now.
