Perform (partial) server initialization before dropping privileges.
Some operations during backend creation (e.g. becoming DRM master)
require CAP_SYS_ADMIN privileges. At this point, sway has dropped them
already, though. This patch splits the privileged part of server_init
into its own function and calls it before dropping its privileges.
This fixes the bug with minimal security implications.
