wm4 b23dce6d7c x11_common: always create a window, even with --wid
The --wid switch (for embedding the player into other applications)
didn't create a new window, and instead tried to use the window that
was passed via --wid directly. This made the code more complex, caused
strange X errors (mpv and host application fighting for exclusive X
resources), and actually could cause issues if the --wid window wasn't
created with the X Visual needed for OpenGL.

Always create a window instead. This makes it always possible to embed
the player into foreign windows. --geometry doesn't work anymore - the
controlling application should always create a new window to place the
player inside it, and can control the video window by moving and
resizing this window.

w32_common.c actually did this right, and always creates a new window.
