nongnu: steam: Work around propagated libx11 profile collision.

Fixes #281.

Use the same fix as when this happened before with expat and fontconfig, as in
commit 3df99d77698a79f3c1dfdaf1becb96956f9ec65d.

* nongnu/packages/steam-client.scm (libxdamage-fixed, mesa-fixed): New
variables.
(steam-client-libs): Replace mesa with mesa-fixed.

+;; After guix commit to add a replacement for libx11 (security fixes),

+;; the propagated libx11 (now grafted) from mesa and its propagated-input
+;; libxdamage.  See previous upstream report (when this occurred for expat and
+;; fontconfig) at <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/53406>.  So we define explicit
+;; replacement packages to workaround this issue.
+;; TODO: remove once upstream bug is fixed or libx11 is ungrafted.
