from the logs:

"Setting up libxcb-shm0 (1.6-1) ...
dpkg (subprocess): unable to execute installed post-installation script (/var/lib/dpkg/info/libxcb-shm0.postinst): Exec format error"

means that your disk got full at some point during the upgrade, and the postinst script for libxcb-shm0 was empty. You need to manually recover from the error, by cleaning up the disk to free some space, and then by reinstalling libxcb-shm0 ("apt-get install --reinstall libxcb-shm0")
