Bug Description
[Impact]
When LightDM sends out an XDMCP Willing/Unwilling message it leaves the hostname blank. This field is used in clients
[Test Case]
1. Start LightDM with the XDMCP server enabled
2. Start an XDMCP client that supports showing available XDMCP servers (e.g. kdmchooser)
Expected result:
An appropriate label is used for the LightDM XDMCP server
Observed result:
No label is shown
[Regression potential]
Low. This field is now populated by the system hostname by default or a value specified in LightDM configuration.
