Subject: [PATCH] Add `shell.sh` utility to run nested X11/wayland sessions

Runs X11 by default, pass in -w to run a wayland session. The dbus address is
copied to clipboard, so it's easy to connect to the new sesssion from emacs
using `gnome-shell-set-dbus-address`.

Depends on Xephyr in the case of x11, and xclip is used to copy the dbus
address.
