[Xcb] XCB naming conventions

[Vincent Torri]

Josh : would it be difficult to change the xslt files to get that naming

Vincent

PS : I agree with Jeremy :)

XCBWINDOWNew

xcb_window_new

I really prefer the second one, but maybe i'm too used with glib, gtk, 
gstreamer and all the efl and other libs that use the same naming 
convention
