Add a modal mode for plugins

mutter_plugin_begin_modal() and mutter_plugin_begin_modal() allow putting
a plugin into a "modal" state. This means:

 - The plugin has the keyboard and mouse grabbed
 - All keyboard and mouse events go exclusively to the plugin

mutter-plugin.[ch]: Add public API
compositor.c compositor-private.h: Implement the API
mutter-plugin-manager.c: When reloading plugins, make sure none of them
  are modal at that moment, and if so force-unmodal them.
common.h: Add META_GRAB_OP_COMPOSITOR
display: When display->grab_op is META_GRAB_OP_COMPOSITOR forward relevant
  events exclusively to the compositor.
