Commit message

Allow unity8 session to connect to LightDM for its authentication.

Description of the change

This lets unity8 use a new LightDM feature to connect to it inside a user session for use in the session's lockscreen.

Since this requires a backported lightdm, I've also updated the config a bit. Use the new Seat:* syntax and drop the deprecated unity seat type. Now the local seat type can handle mir sessions as well.

See https://code.launchpad.net/~mterry/unity8/session-lightdm/+merge/300072 for the unity8-side of this change.

(And similar config change in https://code.launchpad.net/~mterry/unity8-desktop-session/session-lightdm/+merge/300129.)

You can test this from this silo:
