chromoting host always uses display :20

Project Member Reported by sergeyu@chromium.org, Mar 17 2016 
Currently the host always attempts to start X server with DISPLAY=:20, which means that the host will fail to start if the display is used by another X server and it's not possible to run multiple hosts on the same machine. linux_me2me_host.py needs to be updated to find available display dynamically.

The display is already chosen dynamically, starting at 20:

One reason it's not possible to run multiple hosts on the same machine is this upstream bug:
