The X11 lock file was somewhat opaque. Into a sized array of 16 characters, we previously read 11 bytes. 61beda653b fixed the parsing of this input to ensure that we only considered the first 10 bytes: this has the effect of culling a LF byte at the end of the string.
This commit more explicitly NULLs the entire string before reading, and trims trailing LF characters only. It also adds some documentation by way of resizing pid, an explicit size check on snprintf's return, and comments. Verified manually that it emits lock files with a trailing \n, as Xorg does. Also verified manually that it ignores misformatted lock files, but accepts either \n or \0 in the trailing position.
