startx: fix misparsing of initial client and server arguments which begin with / or ./
If you invoke startx with a client whose initial command-line arguments begin with / or ./, it uses the last such argument as the base command for the client. E.g.: startx /usr/bin/xterm /usr/bin/mutt will use /usr/bin/mutt as the client to run instead of /usr/bin/xterm. This is because of the way in which startx parses its arguments. It's a loop over a case with three clauses; the bug is in the first. When it's looking at one of startx's args it checks to see if $clientargs is empty in order to see if it should set $client or add the argument to $clientargs. It should also check to see whether $client is set. There is a similar bug in parsing server args, where it checks to see if $serverargs is empty to decide whether to set $server.
