Allow 'MapToOutput' to accept X geometry strings
This patch allows the MapToOutput command to accept fully- specified X geometry strings as valid output names. The XParseGeometry function describes these strings as having the folowing format: [=][<width>{xX}<height>][{+-}<xoffset>{+-}<yoffset>] Strings with width, height, xoffset, and yoffset defined will be accepted and the device mapped to the rectangle it describes. This patch also renames the function '_set_matrix' to bring its naming in line with the other set_output_XXXX functions.
