Revert "vo_x11: remove this video output"
This reverts commit d11184a256ed709a03fa94a4e3940eed1b76d76f. Unfortunately, there was a lot of unexpected resistance. Do note that this is still extremely slow, crappy, etc. Note that vo_x11.c was further edited. Compared to the removed vo_x11.c, an additional ~200 lines of code was removed in order to simplify it. I tried to strip it down as much as possible. In particular, support for odd non-32 bit formats (24, 16, 15, 8 bit) is dropped. Closes #2300.
