backends/x11: Emulate pointer motion while the pointer is off stage

Browse Source 
Given X11 nature, the pointer "leaves" the stage anytime it wanders into
a client window, or any other areas that are not deemed part of the
stage input region.

Yet we want to stay correct in those situations, e.g. have the clutter
side reasonably in sync, picking and highlighting to work properly, etc.

In order to achieve that, emulate motion events on XI_RawMotion. These
are as much throttled as our pointer tracking for a11y, in order to avoid
too many XIQueryPointer sync calls. This emulation only kicks in anytime
that X11 notifies us that we are not "on" the stage.

This replaces some sync_pointer() calls in GNOME Shell code that are
there just to compensate for this trait of X11, e.g. in the message tray
code.
