The default state of the switcher is constructed but not visible,
so create it that way.
This fixes a bug where if we created the switcher but didn't show it
or use it we'd end up with an empty, odd looking switcher.
With workspaces now being stacked vertically, the horizontal
indicators in the workspace switcher are rather odd. There are
some designs for an improved workspace switch animation, but
it may take a while to implement them, so for now just change
the orientation of the existing switcher.

Although within St itself there are situations where the semantics of
these functions (return TRUE or FALSE and return the actual value in
an out parameter) is useful, it's mostly just annoying at the
application level, where you generally know that the CSS property is
going to specified, and there is no especially sane fallback if it's
not.
So rename the current methods to lookup_color, lookup_double, and
lookup_length, and add new get_color, get_double, and get_length
methods that don't take an "inherit" parameter, and return their
values directly. (Well, except for get_color, due to the lack of (out
caller-allocates) in gjs.)
And update the code to use either the old or new methods as appropriate.

The design calls for item to not appear abruptly, but not too slow
either - 100ms seems to be a good sweet spot for elements which are
supposed to appear "instantly".
Add a fade effect to the alt-tab popup and set the timings for other
fade effects to 100ms.

Currently the workspaceSwitcher does not take the screen size into account
which could result into overflowing the screen.
Fix that but using Shell.GenericContainer instead of St.BoxLayout which takes
the monitor size into account when allocating.

This is our convention.
The only exceptions are double quotes for words in comments that give
them a special meaning (though beware that these quotes are not truly
necessary most of the time) and double quotes that need to be a part
of the output string.
In preparation for adding magnification, "uiGroup.patch", organizes the stage
along the following lines:
Stage
*Magnifier
UI group
Window group
Chrome group
Overlay group
Alt tab
App display
Chrome
...
This allows a magnifier actor to clone and magnify the UI group. The magnifier
is a sibling of the UI Group in this stage oraganization -- see the next patch,
"Magnifier.patch".
Make the width of the workspace switcher dynamic in order to make it have the same proportions as the actual screen.
Call redraw after adding indicator to stage to avoid warning.

Replace the current workspace switcher popup (which is still the old metacity popup), with a clutter based one, which fits better into the overall shell design.
