Hi,

This update fixes issues that can be critical for those affected (ie:
server start failure due to xauth problems), otherwise fairly minor.

The change in authentication modules used is made to ensure things are
always consistent: the same authentication module will be used after
protocol upgrades (ie: TCP sockets upgraded to SSL or Websocket).

The MS Windows and MacOS builds contain the usual large number of
library updates. (ie: MacOS moved to the GStreamer 1.12.x series)


Release notes:
* consistent authentication modules used after socket upgrades
* fix crash with invalid tray docking requests
* fix compatibility with some browsers (ie: ChromeOS)
* fix client authentication failures with multiple challenges
* fix keyboard layout change error with GTK3 builds
* fix X11 multi-screen display handling (X11 "screens")
* fix error during window cleanup and OpenGL error handler
* fix compatibility with newer versions of python-lz4
* fix xauth file location causing proxy start failures
* fix server start failure if stderr is closed
* fix occasional minor error in timer
* don't expose icon absolute paths to clients
* re-enable webcam forwarding support with MS Windows 32-bit clients
