[Spice-devel] [spice-gtk v1] gtk-session: reply agent's clipboard request on failure

From: Victor Toso <me at victortoso.com>

We need to reply back to the agent all clipboard requests even in case
of failure otherwise it will have a pending request. The following
error message can be seen in afterwards, when client sends down some
clipboard data:

 > clipboard: selection requests pending on clipboard ownership
 > change, clearing

An easy way to reproduce this is:
1-) In client, copy image from lo-draw (selection or ctrl+c)
2-) In guest, paste it to GEdit (mouse3 our ctrl+v)
3-) Move to the client
4-) Move back to the guest
5-) see error on vdagent logs

The reason for failure is that client's clipboard contains different
data type (image) then what was requested from guest's editor (text)

While at it, include extra debug message as it might be hard to
identify why clipboard did not work.
