region: Enable or disable fatal errors and selfchecks based on version number
There is a couple of bugs in bugzilla where bugs in the X server triggered asserts in the pixman region code. It is probably better to let the X server survive this. (In fact, I thought I had disabled them for 0.16.0, but apparently not). The patch below uses these rules: - In _stable_ pixman releases, assertions and selfchecks are turned off. Assertions, so that the X server doesn't die. Selfchecks, for performance reasons. - In _unstable_ pixman releases, both assertions and selfcheck are turned on. These releases are what get added to development distributions such as rawhide, so we want as much self-checking as possible. - In _random git checkouts_, assertions are enabled, so that bugs are caught, but selfchecks are disabled so that you can use them for performance work without having to fiddle with turning selfchecks off.
