xsecurelock - X11 screen lock utility with security in mind

patch for 1.7.0

Updated the patch to remove the dependency on x11-libs/libXxf86misc which is subject to removal. I also updated the GitHub PR.

According to https://repology.org/project/xsecurelock/versions xsecurelock is included already in Ubuntu 20.04, Fedora 30+ and Arch community, and it will also be included in Debian 11.
Currently in Gentoo, there is no package that can be used to securely lock X11 sessions if not using Gnome or KDE. Would you consider merging this?
