Use xcb instead of X11 #35

X11 turns out to be a very poopy and stupid old library and I hate it. Dev branch is currently broken because of X11's stupidness. Why won't you just let me capture keyboard events and draw to a window at the same time without getting mad at me? Why do you feel the need to halt until the next event? Why are you like this?

Xcb is freedesktop's replacement library for X11 that does the same things but more modern and better and stuff. There's a new x11-to-xcb branch in which we'll try to make this move. If this branch works with the same code, but using xcb instead of X11, then the branch will be merged into dev and dev into master.

tl;dr x11 poopy we moving to xcb
