Missing XDG session variables

[wltjr]

A few session variables other DMs set that entrance presently is not.

• XDG_SEAT_PATH
• XDG_SESSION_DESKTOP
• XDG_SESSION_PATH
• XDG_SESSION_TYPE

XDG_SEAT is presently hard coded which it should not. It should be obtained from consolekit2 or logind/elogind.

maybe related? #40

Hi, no it is not related. These are variables I know are not being set within Entrance code. Mostly the seat variables, as that comes from systemd's logind or the replacement elogind. I started work, some time ago, on obtaining seat information from logind/elogind via dbus, but that work is not complete.
