It is created by the xserver-common package during install. Files
that are created in the install scripts are not registered as beng
owned by a package. From /var/lib/dpkg/info/xserver-common.postinst:
# if /etc/X11/Xserver does not exist or is of zero length, make it
if [ ! -s /etc/X11/Xserver ]; then
cat > /etc/X11/Xserver <<EOF
/usr/bin/X11/XF86_NONE
Console
The first line in this file is the full pathname of the default X server.
The second line shows who is allowed to run the X server:
RootOnly
Console (anyone whose controlling tty is on the console)
Anybody
EOF
