`ib`: restore and (maybe) use `xdotool` + `i3ipc` reset method #474

Since apparently the container we were using is totally borked on new kernels and/or latest jvm, this move our old manual local-X-desktop script back for use in brokerd backend code.

Adds a new .brokers.ib._util which contains the 2 methods and fails over to this one when we can't connect to a VNC server. Also adjusts the original in scripts/ib_data_reset.py to import and run the module code as a script-program.

NB: as i write this i of course write this i realize why we originally "deprecated" this tech 😂 (mouse hijacked during normal desktop usage all the time)

Probably just gonna land this without review since noone else can really test it and no code actually changed, just got moved around.
