Fixes #85

Changes

Linux: return the stored Init error immediately in clipboard.Write (and related paths) instead of waiting for the 5-second timeout.
Linux: when loading X11, try libx11.so.6 as a fallback if libX11.so is missing so systems without the unversioned symlink stay supported.

Testing

GOOS=linux GOARCH=amd64 go test ./...
Run gclip -copy foo with DISPLAY unset: now fails fast with the Init error.
Run gclip inside a container that only provides libx11.so.6: succeeds after picking up the fallback.

Notes

No changes to macOS/Windows/iOS/Android code paths.
Additional versioned fallbacks can be added later if other environments require them.
