Added more context in the error message and did a final test that it all works.

Thanks for the smooth patch submission process!


x11grab can capture windows by their ID, but gdigrab can only capture windows 
by their names, internally calling FindWindowW to lookup its handle.

This patch simply allows the user to specify a window handle directly.
