clutter/stage: Don't assume stage relayouts reallocate everything

Browse Source 
With the introduction of "shallow" relayouts, we are now able to enter
allocation cycles not only at the stage but also deeper down the
hierarchy if we know an actors allocation isn't affected by its children
since the NO_LAYOUT flag is set.

Now that means when queuing relayouts it's possible that
`priv->needs_allocation` gets set to TRUE for some actors down the
hierarchy, but not for actors higher up in the hierarchy. An actor tree
where that happens could look like that:

stage -> container -> container2 (NO_LAYOUT) -> textActor

With that tree, if the "textActor" queues a relayout, "container2" will
be added to the relayout hashtable of the stage and the actors "stage"
and "container" will have `priv->needs_allocation` set to FALSE.

Now if another relayout on the stage actor is queued,
`clutter_stage_queue_actor_relayout()` currently removes all the other
hashtable entries in favour of the stage entry, (wrongly) assuming that
will allocate everything. It doesn't allocate everything because in the
example above "container" has `priv->needs_allocation` set to FALSE,
which makes clutter_actor_allocate() return early before allocating its
children, so in the end "container2" will never get a new allocation.

To fix this, stop flushing the relayout hashtable when queuing a
stage-relayout and still add new entries to the hashtable if a stage
relayout is already queued to make sure we still go through all the
previously queued "shallow" relayouts. That shouldn't hurt performance,
too, because as soon as an actor got allocated once, it doesn't need an
allocation anymore and should bail out in clutter_actor_allocate() as
long as it's absolute position didn't change.
