Provides a portable implementation of this common allocating sprintf() API found in many, but not yet all, of the platforms we support. If the platform provides vasprintf() we simply wrap it, otherwise we implement it - either way callers can use it regardless of platform. Since not all platforms guarantee to NULL out the return pointer on failure, we don't either, and require callers to check the return value for -1. The old Xprintf() API is deprecated, but left for compatibility for now. The new API is added in a new header so that it can be used in parts of the server such as hw/xfree86/parser that don't include all the server headers.

X Server
The X server accepts requests from client applications to create windows,
which are (normally rectangular) "virtual screens" that the client program
can draw into.
Windows are then composed on the actual screen by the X server
(or by a separate composite manager) as directed by the window manager,
which usually communicates with the user via graphical controls such as buttons
and draggable titlebars and borders.
