Although within St itself there are situations where the semantics of
these functions (return TRUE or FALSE and return the actual value in
an out parameter) is useful, it's mostly just annoying at the
application level, where you generally know that the CSS property is
going to specified, and there is no especially sane fallback if it's
not.
So rename the current methods to lookup_color, lookup_double, and
lookup_length, and add new get_color, get_double, and get_length
methods that don't take an "inherit" parameter, and return their
values directly. (Well, except for get_color, due to the lack of (out
caller-allocates) in gjs.)
And update the code to use either the old or new methods as appropriate.

Add StContainer, which implements the ClutterContainer interface based
on the container methods in st-private and make the existing containers
subclass it.

The StTable code only supports height-for-width. When called in
width-for-height sizing mode, instead of treating the -1 flag
value of 'for_width' as a real width, and requesting all the
children at 1 pixel wide, use the natural width of the table
as the width for determing the height.
Since we can't rewrap in width-for-height mode, we then report
the natural width also as the minimum width of the table.

In StBin, StBoxLayout, and StTable, if a child has a potential
allocation that is larger than its preferred size, we give it its
preferred size instead. However, the corresponding
get_preferred_height/width methods were not making the same
assumption, which meant that if we had more width than the widget
wanted, we would allocate it its preferred width, but with the height
that corresponded to the larger width.
Fix this by defining new helpers _st_actor_get_preferred_width() and
_st_actor_get_preferred_height() and using them everywhere. Also, make
StBin and StTable use _st_allocate_fill() rather than having
nearly-identical duplicate copies of the code.

ClutterGroup calls _destroy, but most of St was just calling _unparent.
This caused problems because the DESTROY signal was not emitted
for child elements after destroying a toplevel. Also, in a GC'd
binding it would cause unpredictable lifetime of children.
Some St widgets simply didn't have _dispose at all; implement it.
Note because of the usage of the background_image in StButton,
we can't cleanly destroy it inside the StWidget.

Convert the StTable code from StStylable to StThemeNode. The
:row-spacing and :col-spacing GObject properties are converted
into spacing-rows and spacing-columns style properties.
A new interactive test is added for StTable.

Remove the StTable specific methods to add actors:
st_table_add_actor()
st_table_add_actor_with_properties()
Since they shadow the generic ClutterContainer add_actor() method,
and patch in our add() convenience function as we do for
StBoxLayout.
