backends/x11: Fix time-comparison bug causing hang

A comparison in translate_device_event() does not account for the fact
that X's clock wraps about every 49.7 days.  When triggered, this causes
an unresponsive GUI.

Replace simple less-than comparison with XSERVER_TIME_IS_BEFORE macro,
which accounts for the wrapping of X's clock.
