vnc: Fix stack corruption and other bitmap related bugs
Commit bc2429b9174ac2d3c56b7fd35884b0d89ec7fb02 introduced
a severe bug (stack corruption).
bitmap_clear was called with a wrong argument
which caused out-of-bound writes to the local variable width_mask.
This bug was detected with QEMU running on windows.
It also occurs with wine:
*** stack smashing detected ***: terminated
wine: Unhandled illegal instruction at address 0x6115c7 (thread 0009), starting debugger...
The bug is not windows specific!
Instead of fixing the wrong parameter value, bitmap_clear(), bitmap_set
and width_mask were removed, and bitmap_intersect() was replaced by
!bitmap_empty(). The new operation is much shorter and equivalent to
the old operations.
The declarations of the dirty bitmaps in vnc.h were also wrong for 64 bit
hosts because of a rounding effect: for these hosts, VNC_MAX_WIDTH is no
longer a multiple of (16 * BITS_PER_LONG), so the rounded value of
VNC_DIRTY_WORDS was too small.
Fix both declarations by using the macro which is designed for this
purpose.
