somewm --check now links each GTK, icon and xrdb finding to a section here
(trip-zip/somewm#737). The GTK/GDK section said to load Gdk lazily after startup, which is what
freezes a session: a callback runs on the compositor's own thread, so deferring the import only
changes when it hangs. Adds sections for running a GTK app, icon theme lookups, client icons and
xrdb.
