Since commit 770231, StImageContent implements the GIcon interface, which allowed us to represent all application icons as GIcon (app-info, X11 icon property or themed fallback icon). While that change made for a nicer ShellApp API, it did introduce a conceptual issue in st_texture_cache_bind_cairo_surface_property(): GIcons usually represent static icons, while the ClutterContent returned by that method updates automatically when the bound property changes. Address this by tracking the MetaWindow:icon property in ShellApp, and update the fallback icon when it changes. With that, a GIcon object always represents the same icon, and any icon change is reflected by a corresponding GIcon change.
