Fix build problem on FreeBSD

I cannot build gdm on FreeBSD because of several problems.

 1. -lutil is missing when linking gdm-session-worker. (daemon/Makefile.am)
 2. #include <sys/types.h> is missing in daemon/gdm-session.h.
 3. #include <netinet/in.h> is missing in daemon/gdm-xdmcp-display-factory.c.

While looking at this patch I notice that this EXTRA_DAEMON_LIBS thing is a bit strange.  See this comment:

# Note that these libs are in LDFLAGS because they should come before
# everything else on the link line as they may override stuff
gdm_LDFLAGS =                           \
        $(EXTRA_DAEMON_LIBS)                    \
        $(NULL)

This was introduced as a hack in order to fix bug 85785, but these days usage within even this one Makefile is inconsistent.  I think it's probably worth removing this at this point, and possibly removing the distinction between EXTRA_DAEMON_LIBS and DAEMON_LIBS entirely.
