x11: support XEmbed
Seems to work with GtkSocket and passing the gtk_socket_get_id() value
via "wid" option to mpv.
One caveat is that using <tab> to move input focus from mpv to GTK does
not work. It seems we would have to interpret <tab> ourselves in this
case. I'm not sure if we really should do this - it would probably
require emulating some other typical conventions too. I'm not sure if an
embedder could do something about this on the toolkit level, but in
theory it would be possible, so leave it as is for now.
