[PATCH weston 1/2] data-device: add a function to send the selection to a client

This commit adds a new exported function, weston_seat_send_selection(),
which sends the current selection to a specified client. This is
useful e.g. to implement a clipboard manager as a special client.

+ * currently set as the selection and sends it to the specified client,
+ * followed by the wl_data_device.selection() event.
+ * If there is no current selection the wl_data_device.selection() event

+ * If the client does not have a wl_data_device for the specified seat
+ * nothing will be done.
+ *
+ * \param seat The seat owning the wl_data_device used to send the events.
