avdevice/xcbgrab: Add select_region option

This patch adds a select_region option to the xcbgrab input device.
If set to 1, the user will be prompted to select the grabbing area
graphically by clicking and dragging. A rectangle will be drawn to
mark the grabbing area. A single click with no dragging will select
the whole screen. The option overwrites the video_size, grab_x, and
grab_y options if set by the user.

For testing, just set the select_region option as follows:

ffmpeg -f x11grab -select_region 1 -i :0.0 output.mp4

The drawing happens directly on the root window using standard rubber
banding techniques, so it is very efficient and doesn't depend on any
X extensions or compositors.

 @table @option
+ at item select_region
+Specify whether to select the grabbing area graphically using the pointer.
+A value of @code{1} prompts the user to select the grabbing area graphically
+by clicking and dragging. A single click with no dragging will select the
+whole screen. A region with zero width or height will also select the whole
+screen. This option overwrites the @var{video_size}, @var{grab_x}, and

 @item draw_mouse
 Specify whether to draw the mouse pointer. A value of @code{0} specifies
 not to draw the pointer. Default value is @code{1}.
