Move preferences to GSettings, using mainly shared schemas from
gsettings-desktop-schemas.
Unlike GConf, GSettings support is not optional, as Gio is already
a hard dependency of GTK+.

Clutter now has some API to get the bounds of the current redraw clip
so Mutter no longer needs to make direct GL calls to get the scissor
rect. This should make it more robust against Cogl or Clutter changing
how it does the clipping.

Back the API version down to 3.0; since we don't make any stability
guarantees, there's no reason to have a merry-go-round of different
directories and filenames that people have to keep up with.
Move all of the mutter code into a new libmutter-wm.so, split its
main() method into meta_get_option_context(), meta_init() and
meta_run(), add methods for using in-process plugins, and add
libmutter-wm.pc pointing to the new library.
The mutter binary is now just a tiny program that links against
libmutter-wm. The --version and --mutter-plugins options are handled
at the mutter level, not in libmutter-wm, and a few strange unused
command-line options (--no-force-fullscreen and --no-tab-popup) have
been removed.

Revert the early_initialize changes (which get in the way in the
"libmutter-wm" paradigm), remove the GConf key for setting plugins,
and remove plugin "params", which weren't being used. Also remove all
the logic for unloading and reloading plugins, since the list never
changes after startup now.

This changes the introspection configure flag from
--with/--without-introspection to --enable/--disable-introspection,
and changes it so that trying to enable introspection when g-i is not
installed results in an error, rather than being silently ignored.

For GNOME Shell, we need to grab our DBus names *before* we talk XSMP.
gnome-session takes our XSMP connection as "I'm ready", and starts
running all the other random crud that people dropped in as autostart
files. But for example, we need to have claimed
org.freedesktop.Notifications before a lot of said crud starts.
This requires a plugin API version bump.
Misc: Move handling of --version way earlier in main() where
it should be; no point having it wedged after plugin handling.
While the Meego developers agreed to switching mutter to GTK+-3.0
unconditionally a while ago, Canonical used a GTK+-2.0 build for their
Unity project. As Canonical now announced a switch to compiz as their
window manager, there is no longer a reason to maintain GTK+-2.0
compatibility.

In many places, MetaRegion was being used entirely internally, rather
than for gtk2/gtk3 compatibility. In these cases, it's simpler to just
depend on cairo-1.10 (for both gtk2 and gtk3) and use cairo_region_t.
The few places where we did need GDK compatibility (GdkEvent.region and
gdk_window_shape_combine_mask) are replaced with a combination of
converting GdkRegion to cairo_region_t and conditional code.

This patch adds the option to disable or enable compiler warnings
to maintain compatibility with gnome standard configure options, and
allow users to work around warnings from compiler incompatibility.
--enable-compile-warnings=no disables compile warnings completely,
while --enable-compile-warnings=yes turns on non-fatal warnings.
The default --enable-compile-warnings=error gives the previous behavior.
Dead code for enabling '-ansi -pendantic' is removed, and the
default enabling of -ansi is removed as well. Blanket disabling
GCC extensions and C99 features causes various problems; we're
better off enforcing the dialect we want to use at code review
time.

g-ir-scanner is currently buggy and confuses the Gdk.Rectangle alias
with MetaRectangle. Since this is moderately hard to fix in
gobject-introspection and the fix would conflict with in-progress
changes, work around by doing a 'sed job' on the generated Meta.gir.
