[gdm] daemon: clean up greeter when unused

commit 15a3f0c699fe1e8583a33d744edfbb0801ab92bf

    daemon: clean up greeter when unused
    
    When user switching GDM needs to show a transient greeter for
    the user to pick a name from the list and jump to that session.
    
    After the user has been jumped to the selected session we don't
    really have a use for the greeter session.  Historically, we've
    kept it around anyway, though, because X by default jumps back
    to the VT it started on when it exits, and we don't want the
    user to get thrown to an empty VT after they log out.
    
    This commit changes X to get started with the "-novtswitch"
    option, so that it doesn't do the undesirable switch-on-exit
    thing.
    
    This allows us to clean up the useless greeter following user
    switches.
    
    Based on work by Josselin Mouette <joss debian org>
