#280457: xterm: want terminal contents (and scrollback?) saved when X
connection lost

Changes:
xterm (270-1) unstable; urgency=low

* New upstream release:
- Add printModeOnXError and printFileOnXError resources, which allow
the user to specify that xterm will write the contents of its screen
to a file if it is exiting due to an X error (Closes: #280457).

Thanks, but I wonder whether it is intentional to have a fixed
filename, as if one has several xterm windows open to the same
server and the X connection is lost, only one window will be
saved to the file. One can use a wrapper, though, e.g.:
I could extend it, e.g., by looking for "|" or ">" at the beginning, to
specify a file or a pipe. Also, I could extend it by making that a
printf/mktime template, to provide the timestamp and whatever directly.
At the moment, I'm not sure which is the most useful.
(I considered a dialog, but realized that wouldn't work for the general X
error case).
