Bug description

libmuffin 6.6.3+zena

muffin is interning an unbounded number of X11 atoms. E.g.

$ xlsatoms | grep META_SELECTION_0x | wc -l
195

and after selecting the above text to paste it here, the number is now at 196. Each new selection creates a new atom.

This is probably meta_x11_selection_input_stream_new_async() interning a new "META_SELECTION_%p" atom each time it's called.

Steps to reproduce

$ xlsatoms | grep META_SELECTION_0x | wc -l

select some text. repeat the above command and see the number grows.

Expected behavior

Atoms are not leaked
