Bug description:
  [Impact]
  LightDM ignores the XDMCP ForwardQuery request.

  [Test Case]
  1. Set up XDMCP so queries are forwarded through a server
  2. Connect to LightDM

  Observed result:
  Connection fails

  Expected result:
  Connection succeeds.

  [Regression Potential]
  Some risk of existing XDMCP queries being broken by the change. Checked with regression tests.
