Bug Description

Currently we look for sessions in /usr/share/xsessions and greeters in /usr/share/xgreeters.

/usr/share/xgreeters is not used by any other DMs and the 'x' for both the sessions and greeters is going to be misleading in the future.

So propose to check for sessions in /usr/share/lightdm/sessions (and also looking in /usr/share/xsessions) and greeters in /usr/share/lightdm/greeters (and also /usr/share/xgreeters as a deprecated fallback.
