Maximilian Bosch 5caa22fe0a Revert restrictive validation behavior for DM/WM defaults in the X module 
The original idea behind this change (described in ticket #11064) was to
improve the assertions to avoid that users of the X server accidentally
forget to configure a DM or WM.

However this caused several issues with setups that require X, but no DM
or WM. The keymap testcases became instable as well as now disabling DMs
needs to be done explicitly.
(see https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/31268#issuecomment-347080036)

In the end the idea behind the change and #11064 was obviously a
mistake, so reverting it completely for now should be fine.

README 

To build the manual, you need Nix installed on your system (no need
for NixOS). To install Nix, follow the instructions at

    https://nixos.org/nix/download.html

When you have Nix on your system, in the root directory of the project
(i.e., `nixpkgs`), run:

    nix-build nixos/release.nix -A manual.x86_64-linux

When this command successfully finishes, it will tell you where the
manual got generated.
