ZDI-CAN-19866/CVE-2023-1393
If a client explicitly destroys the compositor overlay window (aka COW),
we would leave a dangling pointer to that window in the CompScreen
structure, which will trigger a use-after-free later.
Make sure to clear the CompScreen pointer to the COW when the latter gets
destroyed explicitly by the client.
