Bug#571612: gdm: Please provide a Xreset hook using a common framework

Package:  gdm

In BTS report #230422, I outline the need for a hook into the Xreset
phase of the display manager.  Please implement support for it in gdm,
to make it possible to run scripts when users log out from a gdm
session.  This bug should be blocked by #230422.

This patch should solve the issue, if I understood the code correctly.
