[PATCH] client: Fix handling display->reader_count if poll fails

In wl_display_dispatch_queue, if poll fails then it would previously
return immediately and leak a reference in display->reader_count. Then
if the application ignores the error and tries to read again it will
block forever. This can happen for example if the poll fails with
EINTR which the application might consider to be a recoverable error.
This patch just makes it decrement the reader count when poll fails.
