Bug Description

One of the main points of libframe is to provide a platform-independent way of representing multitouch events and device capabilities.

But it currently has a hard/mandatory dependency on x11 libraries.

The correct thing to do would be to have the configure script detecting whether the x11 libraries and headers are present or not and then enable or disable compilation of the x11 backend accordingly. I.e., the x11 dependency and backend (frame_x11.h) functions) should be optional. Related configure flags would also be good (e.g. --without-x11)
