Subject: Use XCB and SelectSelectionInput instead of GTK+

As it happens, there is no real need to constantly poll for changes,
since XFixes can inform us of updates as they happen.

With GTK+ gone we've got dependencies and error handling under control.
XCB is a truly awful thing to learn, though.

Our method will never work on Wayland or Windows, so we don't miss out
on anything by abandoning the huge toolkit.
