Closing SteamVR app: xr.exception.HandleInvalidError

[goddard@…]

The following bug report has been submitted:
Platform:        Windows-10-10.0.22631
ChimeraX Version: 1.9 (2024-12-11 19:11:19 UTC)
Description
Closing the SteamVR application after using SteamLink with ChimeraX "xr on" raises a panel from SteamVR that says quitting SteamVR will close ChimeraX.  But in fact it does not close ChimeraX and instead produces this traceback.

[Tom Goddard]

When running ChimeraX from a cygwin shell the shell also gets the following messages

xrNegotiateLoaderRuntimeInterface bRunningInAppContainer: 0
Error [GENERAL | xrPollEvent | OpenXR-Loader] : No active XrInstance handle.

[Tom Goddard]

Fixed.

Added code to detect when OpenXR connection is lost and give an error message and switch back to mono camera.

This also fixes #16662.
