Title:
  Add session fallback support

Status in “lightdm” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in “lightdm” source package in Oneiric:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Here are the requirements:
  - sessions (in /usr/share/xsessions/*desktop can define an helper to check if the session is runnable or not and can fallback)
  - fallback session can then fallback as well
  - as of today, if the helper returns 1 -> fallback, if 0 -> ok. Add a timeout.
  - we want to register in the dmrc file the session file the user *choosed*, not the one we eventually fallback to
  - try to distro-patch to run the helper in advanced?

  Example of syntax for gnome-session files:
  IsRunnableHelper=/usr/lib/nux/unity_support_test
  FallbackSession=ubuntu-2d
