Fix Released in Mir 0.18.0. Although it's good to mention this bug got
different fixes between the 0.18 and 0.19 branches, it's probably still
best to only mention it in the changelog for one of them.

Title:
[regression] Mir server command line options are
unpredictable/nondeterministic (--vt is sometimes not recognised)

Status in mir package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
Mir server platform command line options are unpredictable/non-
deterministic.
I keep thinking I'm imagining things. Sometimes --vt works and
sometimes it doesn't (from a Gnome Terminal). Well both are true. Now
I have two separate wily machines with the same packages. One fails
but the other works:

It appears the unpredictability might be arising from which driver it
finds on the filesystem first.
