Allow unfocused xwayland clients to access clipboard

Simon Ser requested to merge github/fork/tomKPZ/allow-clipboard-for-unfocused-wayland-clients into master

Created by: tomKPZ

Fixes [1]. These checks were added in [2] in Dec 2017 to prevent unfocused xwayland clients from accessing the clipboard. But the wlr-data-control-unstable-v1 protocol added in Dec 2018 [3] allows unfocused clients to access the clipboard anyway (eg. wl-copy/wl-paste), so the original checks seem obsolete. Since the checks are causing issues (eg. for open-vm-tools), this change removes them.
