xserver_xorg-server: add upstream security fixes for CVE-2017-10971 / 10972 Add upstream patches fixing the following security issues: CVE-2017-10971: The endianess handling for X Events assumed a fixed size of X Event structures and had a specific 32 byte stack buffer for that. However "GenericEvents" can have any size, so if the events were sent in the wrong endianess, this stack buffer could be overflowed easily. So authenticated X users could overflow the stack in the X Server and with the X server usually running as root gaining root prileveges. CVE-2017-10972: An information leak out of the X server due to an uninitialized stack area when swapping event endianess.
